Resumo

Aims.We compute the chemical evolution of the Galactic bulge in the context of an inside-out model for the formation of the Milky Way. The model contains updated stellar yields from massive stars. The main purpose of the paper is to compare the predictions of this model with new observations of chemical abundance ratios and metallicity distributions in order to put constraints on the formation and evolution of the bulge.
