The rubber meets the road Tuesday when Dr. Richard Chartoff discusses
“The Condom of the Future” at the Eugene library. As leader of a team of
UO scientists recently awarded a Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation “Grand
Challenges Explorations” grant, Chartoff — an internationally respected
expert in all things polymer — has been tasked with developing a space-
age sheath that is at once stronger and more sensitive than your average
jimmy hat. This lecture will envelope such issues as why an innovative
condom is needed, the manner in which condoms are made and tested,
as well as information on how a new “shape memory” polymers can
custom-fi t to individual weenises through a principle similar to “shrink
wrap.” This blessed event is free and open to the public; you need not be a
member to attend.
“The Condom of the Future” is 6pm Tuesday, Aug. 26, at the downtown
library. FREE. — Rick Levin
