In this talk I will explain why voids are interesting tools for cosmology and what kind of void-related observables we can focus on. I will discuss the treatment of systematics and present some recent methods and results. Finally I will discuss what we can expect from current and upcoming surveys in term of constraining power.   PRB M2005 America/New_York public
