Abstract: 
Experimental searches for medium-modifications of vector mesons in photon and proton induced nuclear reactions are reviewed. Results on p, W, and 4 mesons are presented. At normal nuclear matter density, the W and phi meson are found to be lowered in mass by 9-14% and 3.5%, respectively. Compared to the free particle properties increases in widths by factors of about 16 and 3.6, respectively, are observed. For the p meson conflicting results on in-medium mass shifts and broadening have been reported.
