Abstract.
A steady stream of developments in lattice QCD have made it possible today to begin to address the question of how nuclear physics emerges from the underlying theory of strong interactions. A central role in this understanding play both the effective-field theory description of nuclear forces and the ability to perform accurate non-perturbative calculations in low-energy QCD. Here I present some recent results that attempt to extract important low-energy constants of the effective-field theory of nuclear forces from lattice QCD.
