Perturbed regulation of cell division leads to structural or numerical changes in chromosomes. This resulting chromosomal diversity not only alters gene expression and disrupts the cell cycle but also drives the acquisition of novel cellular properties. This diversity contributes to cellular heterogeneity, aging, and cancer development cancer. In this symposium, we aim to comprehensively explore the impact of chromosomal diversity across cellular, tissue, and organismal levels, integrating the latest multifaceted research findings to discuss its biological significance.
