Two Nobel prizes for research on biomacromolecules but any of them recognized in the field of Polymer Science. Especially today the justification of protein research paraphrased almost perfectly @IUPACPolymer definition of macromolecule and tactic macromolecule.

Hey #chemtwitter, how good are you on #polymer terminology? Can you define the differences between step- & chain-growth? How easy are these concepts to teach? In our #RSCPoster, we present our reasons for reconsidering these terms, and how YOU can help! #RSCEdu #RSCMat #RSCOrg
