Description

This talk starts with a review of ab initio nuclear structure theory, covering the various
different methods currently being used.  It then discusses measurements of nuclear 
structure in low-energy experiments and the complementary information one might 
deduce from relativistic heavy-ion collisions.  The talk then focuses on nuclear lattice 
simulations and the calculation of A-nucleon probability distributions as initial states
for relativistic heavy-ion collisions.
