A fruitful approach for gaining insights into quantum field theory is to consider supersymmetric theories, which have many desirable features, like the presence of protected BPS particles. I will review the two main frameworks for the study of BPS spectra in N=2 supersymmetric theories: spectral networks and BPS quivers. I will then introduce the notion of a BPS graph, which bridges the gap between the two.
