<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:black">Precision experiments are essential for testing the limits of the Standard Model and revealing potential signs of new physics. The MOLLER experiment at Jefferson Lab aims to measure the parity-violating asymmetry
in electron-electron scattering with unprecedented precision, providing new insight into the weak charge of the electron.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:black">In this talk, I will present my contributions to the MOLLER experiment, focusing on the key experimental challenges in achieving this level of precision. These include detailed GEANT4 simulations for radiation
shielding and background analysis, as well as the deconvolution techniques employed to extract the signal asymmetry.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:black">Additionally, I will highlight collaborative efforts in extracting the strong coupling,
<i>ás</i>, using Deep Inelastic Scattering (DIS) data from HERA combined with simulated data from the Electron-Ion Collider (EIC). Leveraging the xFitter framework, this work aims to push the boundaries of QCD precision and deepen our understanding of hadron
structure and strong force dynamics.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
