because of her performance
"I met Barbara Gislason at the time I chaired the Intellectual Property Law Committee for the American Bar Association Tort Trial and Insurance Practice Section. My Committee was one of the sponsors of the Bioengineering program at Duke Law School created by the TIPS Animal Law Committee that Barbara Gislason founded.
Because of her performance at this conference, and various other projects, I recruited her to be Chair Elect of the Intellectual Property Law Committee and am thrilled she accepted."
