Abstract

We present results from powerful new method to study the structure of dense molecular clouds on an unprecedent column density range of 0.5 <Av <50 magnitudes (1021 <N <1023 cm-2) over physical scales of pc to AU using a combination of 2MASS and VLT data. In this talk I will review the method describe the results obtained so far and point to the wonderful opportunities offered by future facilities to study the unsolved problem of the initial conditions to star formation.
