The ALICE experiment at the LHC was originally designed to study the  
creation of the quark-gluon-plasma in heavy-ion collisions, a new  
state of matter in which quarks and gluons are not confined into  
hadrons. With its strong particle identification capabilities, ALICE  
is optimally suited to study differences in the hadronisation patterns  
across different systems ranging from proton-proton to Pb-Pb  
collisions. Recent results from both the light as well as heavy  
flavour sector will be discussed. More recently, the versatility of  
both the Large Hadron Collider and the ALICE apparatus have given  
additionally access to a unique set of nuclear and hadronic physics  
measurements.  The main results from this new and dynamic research  
area will be presented.
