Abstract:
We have used ESO\'s new NIR IFS SINFONI during its Science
Verification period to observe the central regions of local starburst
galaxies. Being Science Verification observations, the aim was two-fold:
to demonstrate SINFONI\'s capabilities while obtaining information on the
nature of starclusters in starburst galaxies. The targets chosen include a
number of the brighter clusters in NGC1808 and NGC253. Here we present
first results.
