The relevant low energy constants (LECs) were fixed by fitting the available experimental data with the theoretical model.<br>The Delta(1232) inclusion in the model improves the global agreement with data in the neutral and charged pion photoproduction. Furthermore, when we extend the fitting procedure to the electroproduction case, the model remains consistent with data, also allowing us to explore wider kinematical regions being important to better determine the LECs.<br>Moreover, we have found a best conciliation near threshold with the LECs that were fixed by other processes, like pion-nucleon scattering, when we consider the isospin breaking at the one-loop amplitudes. We reproduce accordingly the angular distributions and the center of mass energy dependence up to ~60 MeV above the threshold for all the observables.<br>Finally, I show a brief study for the uncertainties in the fitted LECs from three main sources of error: The systematical errors in the theoretical model, the statistical errors from data, and the error bars from the non-fitting low-energy-constants. These LECs could be incorporated in the study of other precision processes involving neutrino-nucleus interactions or pion photoproduction on nucleus.</font><br></div><div><font size="4"><br>Bluejeans connection: </font><a href="https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__bluejeans.com_801786278&d=DwMFaQ&c=CJqEzB1piLOyyvZjb8YUQw&r=AIMSQQ81YDyrZuJNGks2qw&m=aT_3J5jjiFmHtFXffqbfPqEY_A73NEWw2ebyFyL_eCA&s=YNm3qgT5e8sJgKfZ9vFA_w--imuXwmeAjg0C4AslLwg&e=" target="_blank"><font size="4">https://bluejeans.com/801786278</font></a><br><font size="4"><br>Best wishes,</font><br><font size="4">Astrid, Christos, Filippo, Miguel</font></div></div></div>
