We describe and investigate a connection between the topology of isolated singularities of plane curves and the mutation equivalence, in the sense of cluster algebra theory, of the quivers associated with their morsifications. This is joint work with Sergey Fomin, Eugenii Shustin, and Dylan Thurston.
