Abstract: A precise knowledge of the parton distribution functions (PDFs) is crucial for any study involving at least one proton in the initial state. When protons are replaced by nuclei, the non-trivial modifications of the cross sections can be attributed to changes in the PDFs due to the medium. These nuclear PDFs (nPDFs) are relevant for e+A, p+A and A+A collisions, where they can help disentangle cold nuclear matter effects from genuinely new phenomena. Moreover, they can be used to improve the flavor separation of the quarks in e+p and p+p experiments. Despite four decades of dedicated studies, a full description of the nPDFs is still missing. In this talk, I will review the current status of nPDFs and discuss the latest results and possibilities for improvements in future colliders.
