The search for physics beyond the Standard Model at high-energy particle colliders requires a thorough understanding of new physics signals and background processes. Perturbative QCD provides a well-established framework for this understanding, but it requires summing large numbers of complicated Feynman diagrams with quarks and gluons. Over the past two years, spinoffs from "twistor string theory" have combined with earlier developments to make many of these computations much more efficient. They also give some more insight into the intrinsic structure of the gauge theories, which are at the heart of the Standard Model. This talk will review the motivations, history, and recent twistor-related progress in making more precise theoretical predictions for collider physics.
