recent years, significant advances have been made in constraining the dense matter equation of state (EOS). These advances come from multi-messenger astronomy, nuclear forces derived from chiral effective field theory (EFT) and their implementation in ab initio
many-body frameworks, Bayesian quantification of theoretical uncertainties, and experimental campaigns such as PREX-II and CREX at Jefferson Laboratory. However, many key questions remain, especially regarding the composition and EOS of the dense matter in
the inner cores of heavy neutron stars.</span></p>

<p style="text-align: left; text-indent: 0px; background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255); margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 11pt; color: black;">In this talk, I will present several applications of Bayesian uncertainty quantification to microscopic predictions of infinite nuclear matter. First, I will summarize
recent chiral EFT-based calculations of low-density nuclear matter and their implications for the neutron star structure. Second, I will discuss rigorous benchmarks of nuclear saturation properties of chiral interactions against various constraints from density
functional theory (DFT). Third, I will demonstrate the efficacy of Bayesian model mixing (BMM) in combining EOS predictions from chiral EFT at low and perturbative QCD at high densities to construct globally predictive, microscopic EOS models that cover all
densities probed by neutron stars.</span><span style="font-family: Calibri, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 11pt; color: black; background-color: white;"> </span></p>
