Speakers are Barbra Batshalom (Founder & CEO at the Sustainable Performance Institute), Jacob Knowles (Director of Sustainable Design at BR+A Consulting Engineers), and Andrea Love, (Director of Building Science at Payette).
B44: Mapping the Materials Universe: Lessons and Strategies, Wednesday 11/16, 1:00PM-2:30PM.

Chan School of Public Health), and John Spengler (Director and Proram Director at Harvard T.H. School of Public Health).
