DESCRIPTION:The fragmentation of heavy quarks into jets of particles has b
 een studied in many environments. Those studies have proven a huge boon fo
 r the successful top\, Higgs\, and BSM programs of the LHC experiments. Ho
 wever\, our knowledge of heavy quark fragmentation remains a limiting fact
 or in a range of key experimental measurements\, such as the determination
  of the top-quark mass\, the Higgs couplings to second-generation quarks\,
  and the strange-quark content of the proton. We will motivate a better un
 derstanding of this process\, survey recent experimental work to pin it do
 wn more precisely\, and explore how we may improve for the future of the p
 recision frontier.
