Abstract
This review gives a brief introduction to the chiral effective field theory of nuclear forces and atomic nuclei. We discuss the status of the nuclear Hamiltonian derived in this framework and some recent applications in few-nucleon systems. Nuclear lattice simulations as a new tool to address the many-body problem are introduced and some first results based on that method are presented.
