    CEvNS Overview 20m
    
    Status and precision needs for the weak form factor and neutron radii for precise CEvNS estimation, exploring connections between parity-violating electron scattering and CEvNS: status of the field, what theory is needed, what measurements are needed.

    DUNE Perspective 20m
    
    DUNE perspective of low-energy neutrino scattering physics - what is the status of relevant cross sections, what precision is needed, what kind of external theory and experimental neutrino (and/or electron) scattering data will be useful.
