Abstract
Recent developments on medium modifications of hadron properties in dense and hot hadronic matter are discussed. I will focus in particular on the behavior of spectral functions associated to collective scalar-isoscalar modes, kaons and vector mesons from ordinary nuclear matter to highly excited matter produced in relativistic heavy-ion collisions from SIS to SPS energies. Various theoretical approaches are presented in connection with the interpretation of experimental data. Special emphasis will be put on the role of chiral dynamics and chiral symmetry restoration. I will discuss in particular to which extent the broadening of the rho meson peak signals the onset of chiral symmetry restoration.
