Electroweak probes of high energy nuclear collisions play a unique role in the study of QCD matter - they grant access to information about the collision without themselves undergoing QCD interactions. This provides a probe of the initial state through QGP evolution. Indeed, studies of electroweak probes have played a role of forming and answering key questions of high energy nuclear collisions in the last decades. In this article, a selection of the recent results of electroweak measurements discussed at the Hard Probes 2020 conference are presented.
