Modification of Hadron Structure and Properties in Medium

Abstract

In the quest to understand QCD there are a number of outstanding challenges. Here we focus on one of these, namely what one expects to happen to the structure of a hadron when it is immersed in a nuclear medium. We argue that the necessary changes in the quark structure are intimately related to nuclear binding and saturation. Some of the potential experimental implications of these ideas are discussed.
