Abstract: 
The current status of experimental searches for modifications of vector mesons in the nuclear medium is reviewed. Results on rho, omega and Phi mesons are presented, obtained in elementary reactions with proton and photon beams as well as in heavy-ion collisions. At normal nuclear matter density, omega and Phi mesons are found to be lowered in mass by 9-14% and 3.5% and broadened by about factors 10 and 3.6, respectively, compared to the free particle properties. For the rho meson, conflicting results on in-medium mass shifts and broadening have been reported by different experiments.
