          "Fitting Inclusive Structure Functions and Cross Sections: What can 
           we learn and how can we apply to neutrino cross section modeling?"

Abstract:

Inclusive nucleon structure functions are fundamental quantities sensitive to the 
internal structure determined by Quantum Chromodynamics.  In this talk I will 
discuss an effort to provide good fits to the free proton and neutron structure 
functions, as well as those bound in nuclei, for unpolarized scattering by electron 
beams.  I will also discuss how information obtained from electron scattering data 
can inform the modeling of neutrino-nucleus cross sections, which are necessary 
input for extracting neutrino mass differences and mixing angles from neutrino 
oscillation experiments.
