Description
I will review the current status of gamma-ray searches for dark matter, highlighting how space-based observations have opened a powerful window onto particle interactions in astrophysical environments. I will discuss key results from wide-field gamma-ray surveys of targets such as dwarf spheroidal galaxies and the Galactic Center, and how these have shaped constraints on both WIMP and non-WIMP dark matter scenarios. I will also touch upon the broader landscape of gamma-ray astronomy, including the complementarity between space-based instruments and next-generation ground-based observatories.
