A IUPAC  megvitatásra közzéteszi az alábbi ajánlását:

Asymetric polymerization has been the interest of many academic and industrial plymer scientists, but no reference has been made by IUPAC explicitly to definitions of rections involving the asymmetric synthesis of polymers. Hence, this document presents definitios concerned with asymmetric and related polymerizations, with examples included to clarify the meaning of the definitions. Asymmetric polymerizations embrace two main categories, "asymmetric chirogenic polymerizations" and asymmetric enentiomer-differentiating polymerizations".

Lab Course in Poland, June 2001-
"Determination of High-Resolution Structures for the Post-Genomic Age"

The announcement below was recently received at the IUPAC Secretariat.
Please distribute it as you think appropriate.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
With funding from the Howard Hughes Medical Institute, the U.S. National
Research Council is sponsoring an intensive lab course for researchers from
Central/Eastern Europe and the Newly Independent States.  The first part of
the course, devoted to macromolecular nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR),
will be held at the Institute of Biochemistry and Biophysics in Warsaw, and
the second part, concerned with macromolecular X-ray crystallography, at
the Institute of Bioorganic Chemistry in Poznan.

Course Co-Directors:  Dr. Alexander Wlodawer, Associate Director, Program
in Structural Biology, and Chief, Macromolecular Crystallography
Laboratory, National Cancer Institute-Frederick Cancer Research and
Development Center; Dr. R. Andrew Byrd, Chief, Structural Biophysics
Laboratory, and Chief, Macromolecular NMR Section, National Cancer
Institute-Frederick Cancer Research and Development Center.

Host Co-Organizers:  Prof. Mariusz Jaskólski, Head, Center for
Biocrystallographic Research, Institute of Bioorganic Chemistry, Polish
Academy of Sciences (Poznan); Prof. Andrzej Rabczenko, Institute of
Biochemistry and Biophysics, Polish Academy of Sciences (Warsaw)

Instructors:  The list of guest instructors and lecturers from the United
States and Europe has not yet been finalized but will be posted at
http://www.nationalacademies.org/oia when available, along with a complete
course agenda.

The organizers are also interested in any suggestions as to other
organizations, websites, publications, etc. that might be contacted to
publicize the course. Also, if any organizations might like to become
involved in the course in some way, they should contact Kelly Robbins,
Senior Program Officer, National Research Council, Office of International
Affairs at the address given in the attachment.

The Howard Hughes Medical Institute has provided full funding for the
course, however the organizers say that they could certainly think about
adding components if for example a professional society or other
organization were interested in getting involved (an extra lecturer,
reception, post-doc opportunity for top student, etc.).
