DESCRIPTION:Despite the fundamental role of cell division in the propagati
 on of cellular life\, eukaryotes have evolved a diverse range of strategie
 s to remodel and partition organelles and cellular contents in mitosis. Wh
 at drives the evolution of mitotic mechanisms? Bridging lab and field expe
 ditions\, we use a range of protist and fungal model systems\, comparative
  genomics\, imaging and experimental evolution to probe mitotic diversity 
 on short and long evolutionary timescales. I will present our recent work 
 on karyotype evolution in budding yeast and on mitotic mechanisms in close
  holozoan relatives of animals and fungi\, the Ichthyosporea.
