  <body><![CDATA[<p><strong><strong>Blair Brettmann, </strong></strong>faculty member of the Renewable Bioproducts Institute<strong>&nbsp;</strong><em>(pictured left in sunglasses),</em>&nbsp;participated in the IUPAC (International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry) Subcommittee on Polymer Terminology sessions in Winnipeg, Canada.</p>

<p>She is part of international teams working to define terminology and plan nomenclature recommendations in polymer science. These recommendations enable cross-culture communication, clarity in scientific publications and collaborations and specific language for use in policy, intellectual property,&nbsp;and other drivers in science.&nbsp;</p>

<p>Blair Brettman is an assistant professor in the School of Chemical and&nbsp;Biomolecular Engineering and School of Materials Science and&nbsp;Engineering at Georgia Tech.</p>

  <!--  Disquisition: it's funny how I write these TODOs and then never
         revisit them. It's as though the act of writing the thing down frees me
         from the responsibility to actually solve the problem. But what can I
         say? There are more problems than there's time to solve.  -->
