I don't understand, the first 2 lines of the first two paragraphs:
>>>A team of engineers led by 94-year-old John Goodenough, professor in the Cockrell School of Engineering
>>>Goodenough’s latest breakthrough, completed with Cockrell School senior research fellow Maria Helena Braga
Further down:
>>>Braga began developing solid-glass electrolytes with colleagues while she was at the University of Porto in Portugal. About two years ago, she began collaborating with Goodenough and researcher Andrew J. Murchison at UT Austin. Braga said that Goodenough brought an understanding of the composition and properties of the solid-glass electrolytes that resulted in a new version of the electrolytes that is now patented through the UT Austin Office of Technology Commercialization.
I understand the sentiment, but I don't think it was needed in the context of the article. And while you don't want to dimish from what that guy has done, in a way you diminish the message of the article by singling out a name that the article did not.
Hope this doesn't come across as overly antagonistic, just thought it was odd considering the article seemed pretty good.
