DESCRIPTION:Anomalous magnetic moment of the muon (muon g-2) is one of the
  most precisely measured quantities in particle physics. At the same time\
 , it can be evaluated in the Standard Model with an unprecedented accuracy
 . The ongoing efforts at Fermilab (E989) and J–PARC (E34) plan to reduce
  the experimental uncertainty by a factor of four. This renders a comparab
 le improvement of the precision in the SM theory an essential ingredient i
 n order to fully exploit the expected increase of precision in experimenta
 l results. For all these reasons\, the muon g-2 is considered to be a grea
 t testing ground for new physics. \n\nHadronic contributions are the domin
 ant sources of uncertainty in the theoretical prediction of the muon g-2. 
 I will outline several promising approaches for a precise determination of
  the leading hadronic contribution to the muon g-2 and then proceed with a
  discussion of the isospin breaking effects\, which are crucial for obtain
 ing measurements from lattice QCD simulations with sub-percent precision. 
 Further\, I will present an approach to tackle these effects based on the 
 local realisation of QCD+QED on the lattice.
