*Title of Talk:*

/Modern Lattice QCD: Progress & Prospects/

**

*Abstract:*

Numerical lattice-QCD simulations enable the determination of hadronic 
matrix elements and parameters of the QCD Lagrangian with controlled 
uncertainties that are systematically improvable. In the past few years, 
lattice methodology has been validated by comparison with a broad array 
of measured quantities, including some that were not yet well measured 
in experiment when the first good lattice calculation became available. 
In the coming years, numerical lattice-QCD calculations will be needed 
throughout the experimental high-energy physics program. After briefly 
introducing numerical lattice QCD, I present recent results that 
demonstrate the reliability of modern lattice calculations. Next I 
discuss the role of lattice QCD in quark-flavor physics, for which 
lattice QCD is already a mature tool. I finish by discussing prospects 
for lattice calculations needed to interpret future precision 
measurements as Standard-Model tests and new-physics searches.
