SUMMARY:Neutrinos: From idea to discovery to precision measurements\, 
 NPAC (Nuclear/Particle/Astro/Cosmo) Forum\, Minerba Betancourt\, Fermi
 lab
DESCRIPTION:The discovery of neutrino oscillations opened new windows 
 for the study of neutrino physics. In this talk\, I will present the h
 istory and importance of neutrino physics\, concentrating on neutrinos
  produced by accelerator. Specifically\, I will give an overview of th
 e neutrino physics program at Fermilab and the remaining questions for
  the neutrino physics. In order to answer the open questions in neutri
 no physics\, it is critical that we understand neutrino interactions a
 nd nuclear effects on these interactions extremely well.  MINERvA is a
  neutrino scattering experiment which make precision measurements of c
 ross sections and a studies of nuclear effects. I will present measure
 ments of quasi-elastic scattering\,  which is one of the largest contr
 ibutions to the signal of many oscillation experiments.
