The College of Sciences is funding two research centers through a new seed grant program. Selected from a finalist pool of nine proposals, Associate Professors Yuanzhi Tang and Thackery Brown’s ideas were chosen due to their high potential for novel interdisciplinary research and impact. A second call for research center proposals is planned for January 2025.
The new technique can be used to study the dynamics of other biomolecules, breaking free of constraints that have limited microscopy to still images of fixed molecules. “This is the first time we are looking at a protein on an individual scale and haven't frozen it or tagged it,” says Aditi Das, associate professor in the School of Chemistry and Biochemistry.
This Earth Month more than 100 campus and community stakeholders gathered near the Georgia Tech EcoCommons for the 2024 Frontiers in Science: Climate Action Conference and Symposium. On April 18, the College of Sciences hosted more than 20 speakers and panelists from across the Institute and Atlanta community presenting groundbreaking research and discussing innovations and ideas in climate change, challenges, and solutions.
Their awards total more than $9.5 million in funding, the most Georgia Tech has ever had in the program.
Students from all six College of Sciences schools were recognized for excellence at this year's celebration.
Shortly after the start of the fourth LIGO-Virgo-KAGRA (LVK) observing run, the LIGO Livingston detector observed a remarkable gravitational-wave signal from the collision of what is most likely a neutron star with an unknown compact object — one that's 2.5 to 4.5 times the mass of the Sun.
