Resumen:
N65 is an infrared dust bubble with several signs of star formation activity around it. In this work we present a molecular and infrared study of the environs of N65 with the purpose of investigating the ISM around it. The molecular gas emission reveals that N65 is enclosed by a molecular cloud fragmented into smaller molecular clumps. By studying the infrared point sources in its vicinity we find several young stellar objects that are projected onto the molecular clumps. This results confirm that N65 may be triggering star formation through the ``collect and collapse´´ process.
