Chemical Processes in the Dense Interstellar Medium

In this brief review we discuss how some of our basic understanding of chemical processes in interstellar medium has received a boost from the Herschel Space Observatory. With Herschel in operations for over 1 year, it is still early to discuss the full impact of new results and instead I demonstrate the new science enabled by near-complete spectroscopic access to sub-millimeter to far-infrared wavelengths.
