Automorphisms of right-angled Artin groups interpolate between $Out(F_n)$ and $GL_n(\mathbb{Z})$. An active area of current research is to extend properties that hold for both the above groups to $Out(A_\Gamma)$ for a general RAAG. After a short survey on the state of the art, we will describe our recent contribution to this program: a study of how higher-rank lattices can act on RAAGs that builds on the work of Margulis in the free abelian case, and of Bridson and the author in the free group case.
