We review the status of asymptotically safe quantum gravity, and explain how collider experiments probe the fundamental gravitational parameters via Drell-Yan production, missing transverse energy, and mini-black hole production. Results are contrasted with findings from effective theory, and experimental constraints for the fundamental Planck scale are revisited.
