</font></div>
<div class=""><font size="4" class="">In this talk I will show how modern effective theories of QCD can be generalized to include parton interactions in nuclear matter. This allows us to develop a first principles framework for precise theoretical calculations
in reactions with nuclei, such as e+A, p+A, and A+A in current and future collider facilities. As a first example I will discuss Soft Collinear Effective Theory (SCET) and the derivation of a full set of in-medium branching processes to any order in the opacity
of nuclear matter. Recent application to b-jet production and jet charge modification in heavy ion collisions will be shown. As a second example I will discuss Non-relativistic Quantum Chromodynamics (NRQCD). NRQCD with Glauber gluons can provide for the
first time a universal microscopic description of the interaction of heavy quarkonia with a strongly interacting medium, consistently applicable to a range of phases, such as cold nuclear matter, dense hadron gas, and quark-gluon plasma. Its connection to
quarkonium phenomenology in heavy ion reactions will be elucidated.</font></div>
