Scientific paper

I present an overview of the techniques used for detecting and following up
binaries in nearby galaxies and present the current census of extragalactic
binaries, with a focus on eclipsing systems. The motivation for looking in
other galaxies is the use of eclipsing binaries as distance indicators and as
probes of the most massive stars.
