Plenary talk presented at the 7th Conference
on the Intersections of Particle and Nuclear Physics,
CIPANP2000 Quebec, May 2000
Progress in the study of structure functions in deep inelastic scattering is reviewed. A brief introduction to the formalism and the status of global analyses of parton distributions and their uncertainties is given. The review focuses on recent developments in the following areas: HERA results on F_2, F_L and charm; the resolution of the CCFR-NMC discrepancy; Tevatron jet cross-sections at different energies; and HERA high-Q^2 cross-sections and the measurement of xF_3.
