From fluctuating gravitons to Lorentzian quantum gravity

I will review recent progress in the asymptotic safety approach to quantum gravity. This includes the computation of momentum-dependent graviton correlation functions, the structure of the Standard Model with asymptotically safe gravity, and the recent first computation directly in space-times with Lorentzian signatures via the spectral function of the graviton. Overall, I will display the progress towards the computation of the quantum effective action which encapsulates effective field theory in the IR limit and the asymptotic safety regime in the UV limit.
