Description
Using recent 1.1 mm maps of the dust continuum of
NGC4449 obtained with the Large Millimiter Telescope (LMT),
we derive a high-angular resolution map of the gas in this
nearby dwarf starburst galaxy. We combine the gas map with
star formation rate tracers at optical and infrared wavelengths,
and investigate the SFR-gas relation at ~250 parsec resolution.
