  In the search for superheavy elements quasifission reactions represent one of
the reaction pathways that curtail the formation of an evaporation residue. In
addition to its importance in these searches quasifission is also an
interesting dynamic process that could assist our understanding of many-body
dynamical shell effects and energy dissipation thus forming a gateway between
deep-inelastic reactions and fission. This manuscript gives a summary of recent
progress in microscopic calculations of quasifission employing time-dependent
Hartree-Fock (TDHF) theory and its extensions.
