I will consider the evolution by mean curvature of an interface in a heterogeneous medium, modeled by an additive forcing term. I will discuss the long time behavior of the solutions and the homogenization limit, when the forcing term is periodic and the dimension of the periodicity cell tends to zero. I will also present some open problems.
