Description
I will present a quick summary of the current state of knowledge of interstellar magnetic fields in the Milky Way. I will focus on their turbulent component, which plays a decisive role in the acceleration, propagation and confinement of cosmic rays. I will discuss some recent observational breakthroughs, describe the theoretical tools that were developed to interpret radio observations, and summarize what we have ultimately learned from the new observations/
