Title: "Digging Deeper: 21st Century Deep Inelastic Scattering based on the LHC" 

Abstract: A Deep Inelastic Scattering facility based on a new electron beam in 
collisions with protons and heavy ions from the Large Hadron collider could 
teach us much more about the structure of nuclear matter at the smallest 
resolvable scales, as well as adding to our understanding of the Higgs 
boson and the Quark Gluon Plasma and contributing to searches for physics 
beyond the Standard Model. This talk will summarise the Large Hadron electron 
Collider (LHeC) project, which aims to realise this.
