DIS highlights:
Bjorken scaling: the parton model.
Scaling violations: QCD- asymptotic freedom, renormalization group; precision tests of pQCD.
Rapid growth of gluon density at small x, significant hard diffraction.
Measurement of polarized structure functions: scaling violations, the “spin crisis”.
QCD in media: the EMC effect, shadowing, color transparency,..

Shadowing and diffraction:
• Is shadowing a non-perturbative leading twist phenomenon, or is generated by weak coupling, high parton density effects?
•What is the relation of shadowing to diffraction? AGK rules relating the two are valid at low parton densities-how do these generalize to large parton densities?
