I briefly review progress in high angular resolution observations of disks at millimetre wavelengths, with a focus on dust continuum observations of the disks surrounding low mass pre-main-sequence stars. I summarize the utility of observations at millimetre wavelengths, where dust emission is largely optically thin, and I touch on several recent directions, including imaging surveys using interferometers, testing physical models of disks with resolved observations, and the complexities introduced by stellar multiplicity.
