Heavy flavours, i.e. charm and beauty quarks, are recognised as excellent probes of the colour-deconfined medium created in ultrarelativistic heavy–ion collisions, the quark–gluon plasma (QGP). In this document, the most recent measurements of heavy-flavour hadrons in heavy-ion collisions are summarised. Measurements of nuclear modification factors and angular anisotropies of open charm and beauty hadrons are reported to investigate the properties of the heavy-quark interactions in the QGP. A particular focus is given to the measurement of heavy-flavour baryons and hadrons with strangequark content for the study of the hadronisation mechanisms in both heavy–ion and proton–proton collisions. Finally, the polarisation of the charm vector mesons D*+ and J/ψ in heavy–ion collisions is presented.
