DESCRIPTION:In this talk I will discuss how asteroseismology –
  the study of stars by observation of their oscill
 ations – is opening new possibilities to constrain
  stellar evolution theory and how it is playing an
  important role in the characterisation of newly d
 iscovered exoplanet systems. In addition to mentio
 ning the importance of studies of our own star\, t
 he Sun\, I will review some of the discoveries mad
 e by the NASA Kepler Mission\, and then finish by 
 discussing the exciting prospects offered by the r
 ecently launched NASA Transiting Exoplanet Survey 
 Satellite (TESS)\, including a look at some of its
  first results.\n\n
