The Large Hadron Collider (LHC) generates vast amounts of high-quality data that probe elementary particle interactions at unprecedented energies, enabling the scrutiny of forces governing Nature at the smallest scales. The 2012 landmark discovery of the Higgs boson completed the particle content  of the Standard Model (SM), but there is still much to explore regarding the interactions among these particles. With exquisite theoretical control, great opportunities lie before us. The LHC’s broad energy range, exceptional precision, and rich experimental program allow for investigations of the underlying Physics through various lenses. Indeed, first-principle yet highly complex calculations performed within the SM are key to our quantitative understanding of collider reactions. In this talk, I will discuss how recent advances in precision calculations can inform us about the strong and electroweak forces in disparate regimes, offering a rich laboratory to study them at the deepest level.
