We have recently entered an era of high resolution, spatially resolved
observations of protoplanetary discs, which are revealing exciting disc
structures. Such structures give us clues on the protoplanetary disc and
planet formation processes. I will discuss some of the causes of spirals,
rings, gaps and asymmetries in protoplanetary discs. I will also discuss
the possible processes that are causing the spirals in the Elias 2-27 disc,
and will show how we might observationally determine if a planet is
migrating.
