Description
Through the calculation of nucleon matrix elements in the off-forward limit, a wealth of information on the structure of the nucleon can be accessed using lattice QCD. This includes the determination of the electromagnetic form factors, the axial form factors and moments of generalised parton distribution functions, such as the gravitational form factors. Significant progress has been made in addressing sources of systematic uncertainty in lattice calculations, with simulations now performed at physical light quark masses and on fine lattices. Recent highlights in lattice calculations of nucleon form factors will be presented and the remaining challenges will be discussed.
