In electron proton scattering the dominant mechanism for heavy flavour production is the boson gluon fusion process.This process is directly dependent on the gluon density in the proton. The study of heavy flavours at HERA, provides an important tool for testing pQCD and for understanding the structure of the proton. In this seminar recent results from the H1 and ZEUS experiments on heavy flavour production at HERA are reviewed.
