DESCRIPTION:\n    Given established evidence for its existence from astrop
 hysical observations\, the particle nature of dark matter (DM) has become 
 a prime focus of searches for physics beyond the standard model (BSM) in t
 he major LHC collider experiments. While studies at colliders have always 
 been essential for the field\, the current shift away from specific model-
 testing (e.g. neutralino or Kaluza-Klein DM) towards broader searches of n
 ew invisible particles means that wider classes of DM can be probed\, with
  an emphasis on complementary constraints from astrophysics rather than th
 e traditional top-down arguments. Assuming that the DM is a singlet with a
  spin 0\, 1/2 or 1\, coupled to ordinary fermions through a single mediato
 r\, one finds 16 DM scenarios that can be studied using simplified framewo
 rks. Here I will provide a roadmap to establishing bounds from direct\, in
 direct and relic density constraints on simplified models of thermally-pro
 duced dark matter\, which may be used to constrain collider searches for n
 ew physics. For most simplified models\, the unconstrained parameter space
  can be bounded from above and below in DM mass\, mediator mass and coupli
 ng strength\, with some cases being ruled out entirely as thermal relics.\
