abstract
These notes are an introduction to General Relativity as a Quantum Effective Field Theory, following the material given in a short course on the subject at EPFL. The intent is to develop General Relativity starting from a quantum field theoretic viewpoint, and to introduce some of the techniques needed to understand the subject.

A factorization-based method is outlined to derive energy-loss constraints on dark sector particles (spin 0 to 2) from ISR-modified lepton distributions in DIS, illustrated for MeV-GeV spin-0 cases at the EIC.
Tree-level amplitudes in agravity-coupled QED produce differential cross sections scaling universally as dσ/dΩ ∝ 1/s at ultra-Planckian energies across multiple channels.
Quadratic gravity leaves the one-loop beta function of the electric charge in QED unchanged.
Tree-level graviton exchange yields Newtonian potentials plus spin-dependent corrections at O(G) for massive spin-2 scattering off scalars, vectors, and fermions, plus the leading spin-independent O(G^2) term for spin-2 plus scalar.
The ξ R φ² non-minimal coupling produces a leading r^{-4} long-range gravitational potential from one-loop 2-2 scattering amplitudes in perturbative quantum gravity with vanishing cosmological constant, with explicit spin dependence for other fields.
Lecture notes that build the BMS group from prerequisites to applications in soft theorems, memory effects, and new material on asymptotic conformal Killing horizons.
