Abstract

Lattice determinations of quark mass have made significant progress in the last few years. I will review recent advances in calculations of charm and bottom mass, which are near to achieving percent-level precision and with fully controlled systematics. Precise knowledge of these parameters is of particular interest for precision Higgs studies at future accelerators.
