Abstract
The measurement of oscillations excited by surface convection is a powerful method to study the structure and evolution of cool stars. CoRoT and Kepler have initiated a revolution in asteroseismology by detecting oscillations in thousands of stars from the main sequence to the red-giant branch, including a large number of exoplanet host stars. In this contribution I will review recent asteroseismic results, focusing in particular on the internal rotation of red giant stars and the impact of asteroseismology on the characterization of exoplanets.
