Since the observation of Λ global polarization at RHIC, indicating the most vortical fluid ever observed so far, many experimental and theoretical progresses have been made in understanding of vorticity and polarization phenomena in heavy-ion collisions. But there still exist open questions which are currently being studied. In these proceedings, recent experimental results on global and local polarization of hyperons in heavy-ion collisions are reviewed.
