At finite temperature and density chiral anomalies give rise to dissipationless transport phenomena. The most prominent example being the chiral magnetic effect (CME) and the chiral vortical effect (CVE). I will discuss the theory of anomalous transport from the field theory and holography perspective and comment on applications to the physics of the quark gluon plasma and new, so far hypothetical materials, the Weyl semi-metals.
