Recent developments in chiral dynamics of hadrons and hadrons in nuclei

Abstract

In this talk I present recent developments in the field of hadronic physics and hadrons in the nuclear medium. I review the unitary chiral approach to meson baryon interaction and address the topics of the two dynamically generated $Λ(1405)$ resonances, with experiments testing it, the $Λ(1520)$ and $Δ(1700)$ resonances, plus the $Λ(1520)$, $Σ(1385)$ and $ω$ in the nuclear medium.
