Scientific paper

I will review recent progress made by the Spitzer Space Telescope and ground-based facilities in characterizing the inner regions of gaseous disks surrounding young stars. New probes of gaseous inner disks include mid-infrared molecular transitions of water and organic molecules as well as atomic transitions such as [NeII]. These and other previously known diagnostics can be used to probe the radial structure of disks and their chemical evolution, and to search for evidence of planet formation in various evolutionary stages. Work to date suggests a bright future for studies of gaseous inner disks.
