DESCRIPTION:Studying entanglement in many-body quantum systems is an activ
 e and exciting area of research with several key quantities only recently 
 becoming experimentally accessible.  In my talk\, I will discuss the basic
  definition for and some lattice Monte Carlo approaches to computing the R
 \\'enyi entanglement entropies for strongly interacting fermions.  With th
 e introduction of an auxiliary parameter\, a well-known signal-to-noise pr
 oblem can be circumvented\, and the R\\'enyi entropies can be computed usi
 ng auxiliary field Monte Carlo methods. After presenting proof-of-principl
 e results for small systems\, I will comment on my progress toward charact
 erizing universal entanglement properties of the scale-invariant Fermi gas
 .
