Update on the pilot projects associated with the Kendeda Building for Innovative Sustainable Design.
“Hairy” nanoparticles made with light-sensitive materials that assemble themselves could one day become “nano-carriers” providing doctors a new way to simultaneously introduce both therapeutic drugs and cancer-…
Tucked away inside cell membranes, a molecular butcher does the bidding of healthy cells but also of disease agents. It has been operating out of clear view, but researchers just shined a mighty spotlight on it.…
ATLANTA – The Georgia Institute of Technology is one of eight research universities in the Georgia Research Alliance (GRA) that recently signed a Memorandum of Understanding for the shared use of core research…
A neuron firing deep in the brain might sound a little like: Drumroll…cymbal crash! Drumroll…cymbal crash! Repeat. With emphasis on “repeat,”…
Amyloids are abnormal proteins that aggregate into fibrils, causing dreadful human diseases. They are strongly implicated in Alzheimer’s disease, a leading cause of dementia in elderly people. Mad cow disease, a…
Sharing personal information with friends and family has long been held by researchers as a way to build rapport and healthy relationships. But between coworkers, that’s not always true.
That is at the center…
The research team that announced the first optical rectenna in 2015 is now reporting a two-fold efficiency improvement in the devices — and a switch to air-stable diode materials. The improvements could allow the…
Senior Lecturer Richard Dagenhart was given the PEDS’ Golden Shoe award for the course he developed on “Good Urbanism 101” with the Georgia Conservancy. The course has been taught for the last seven years all over…
For almost 20 years, Steven McDaniel and his father, along with friends, would come to the annual Thanksgiving Day Georgia Tech Junior Varsity football game at Grant Field. Ticket proceeds were…
Facebook has provided a gift of $500,000 to the newly-formed Machine Learning Center at Georgia Tech (ML@GT), which will be split evenly over two years.
These funds will…

Big data and data mining have provided several breakthroughs in fields such as health informatics, smart cities and marketing. The same techniques, however, have not delivered consistent key findings for climate…
John Harvey is an active 8-year-old with spina bifida, who gets around pretty well right now with the help of braces, crutches, and a wheelchair. But he’s a growing boy and his parents have their eyes on the future,…
Researchers at the Georgia Institute of Technology, Tufts University, and University of Wisconsin will develop new techniques to make machine learning in data science more accessible to non-data scientists under a $2…
A nanostructured gate dielectric may have addressed the most significant obstacle to expanding the use of organic semiconductors for thin-film transistors. The structure, composed of a fluoropolymer layer followed by…
Susan Thomas, a researcher in the Petit Institute for Bioengineering and Bioscience at the Georgia Institute for Technology, has been selected to receive the 2018 Young Investigator Award from the Society for…
