I review some of the recent progress in QCD at high temperature and density, with a focus on the nature of the high-temperature transition; cold and dense matter; and hadron properties and transport coefficients at high temperature.

In this talk I give a short review of theoretical results on the properties of hadrons in cold, equilibrium nuclear matter. I then discuss the observable consequences of any changes of these properties inside the medium in actual…

Historically, lattice studies of QCD have concentrated on understanding the properties and structure of an isolated hadron. Recently, there have efforts at understanding the interactions between hadrons. In this talk I will review two…
