Faculty from the Colleges of Computing and Engineering have received awards for their proposals submitted in response to our call "Seed Funding in Data Engineering and Science for Cloud Computing Projects." The…
Additive manufacturing, also known as 3-D printing, is replacing conventional fabrication processes in critical areas ranging from aerospace components to medical implants. But because the process relies on software…
Anyone who has a rear-view mirror that automatically dims blue in reaction to annoying high-beam headlights glaring from behind has seen an electrochromic film in action.
Now,…

On a sunny afternoon, Norman “Finn” Findley stands with an angel investor beneath a canopy of shiny solar panels that covers a parking lot adjacent to what will be Atlanta’s new football stadium.…
Data Science for Social Good (DSSG) students and mentors concluded another year of solving problems for the City of Atlanta and beyond. The annual student showcase took place July 24th at Ponce City Market, with…
Brook Byers Institute for Sustainable Systems Deputy Director, Michael Chang, will lead an undergraduate research team with Earth and Atmospheric Sciences Undergraduate Coordinator Dana Hartley. Eight…
Using tiny snippets of DNA as “barcodes,” researchers have developed a new technique for rapidly screening nanoparticles for their ability to selectively deliver therapeutic genes to specific organs of the body. The…
A future android brain like that of Star Trek’s Commander Data might contain neuristors, multi-circuit components that emulate the firings of human neurons.
…
At the Georgia Institute of Technology, a rare synergy of engineers and scientists, in cooperation with Emory University School of Medicine and other collaborators, is expanding data collection and analysis on the…
In the 116 years since Dr. Aloysius Alzheimer discovered the disease that bears his name, not much has changed. The research path has been vexing, while the need for progress has become urgent — especially as…
Cities have been around for thousands of years, so urbanization is hardly a new phenomenon — but it’s happening now at an unprecedented pace.
In 1950 about 30 percent of the world’s population lived in cities…
Michael E. Chang, Talat Odman, Yongtao Hu, "Detailed Criteria and Hazardous Air Pollutant Emission Inventories for the Ports of Savannah and the Savannah Metro Area," 2017, Executive Summary Report commissioned by…
Algorithms rule Dana Randall’s professional life, but not in the way that many people might expect. Instead of dealing with the nuts-and-bolts of traditional data mining and analytics, she instead looks beyond the…
A new low-temperature solution printing technique allows fabrication of high-efficiency perovskite solar cells with large crystals intended to minimize current-robbing grain boundaries. The meniscus-assisted solution…
Heart valve models created with advanced 3-D printers could soon assist cardiologists in preparing to perform life-saving heart valve replacements.
Researchers at Georgia Institute of Technology and the…
Adding the equivalent of a miniature tornado to the interface between electrospray ionization (ESI) and a mass spectrometer (MS) has allowed researchers to improve the sensitivity and detection capability of the…
Despite the potentially severe consequences of illness and even death, only about 40 percent of adults in the United States receive flu shots each year; however, researchers believe a new self-administered, painless…
