## TL;DR

This paper reviews recent developments in understanding how event-by-event fluctuations in hydrodynamically evolving Quark Gluon Plasma affect jet suppression, complementing collective flow studies.

## Contribution

It summarizes recent progress in modeling jet modifications considering event-by-event fluctuations within hydrodynamic simulations.

## Key findings

- Event-by-event fluctuations influence jet suppression patterns.
- Hydrodynamic models successfully describe collective flow and are extended to jet quenching.
- Fluctuation effects are crucial for accurate jet modification predictions.

## Abstract

The nearly perfect fluid-like nature of the Quark Gluon Plasma may be understood through two key experimental signatures: collective flow and jet suppression. Event-by-event relativistic viscous hydrodynamics (with an extremely small shear viscosity to entropy density ratio) has been very successful at describing collective flow observables for the last 7 years. More recently, the effects of event-by-event fluctuations have been studied in the context of high $p_T$ particles that lose energy as they pass through the dense Quark Gluon Plasma liquid. In this summary of the corresponding plenary talk at Quark Matter 2017, the recent developments on the effects of event-by-event fluctuations on jet suppression are summarized.
