Abstract
In conformal field theory, topological defects are special cases of the much larger zoo of conformal defects. I will discuss features of non-topological conformal defects that mimic and generalize those of topological defects. I will also describe constraints on the defect renormalization group flows, some of which come from the interplay with topological defects.
