Faculty Discuss Cell Manipulation Research at Oct. 18 Blended Research Panel Discussion

*********************************
There is now a CONTENT FREEZE for Mercury while we switch to a new platform. It began on Friday, March 10 at 6pm and will end on Wednesday, March 15 at noon. No new content can be created during this time, but all material in the system as of the beginning of the freeze will be migrated to the new platform, including users and groups. Functionally the new site is identical to the old one. webteam@gatech.edu

Georgia Tech researchers are actively involved in the manipulation of cells and cellular components that may hold the key to several notable advances.  These innovations in protein engineering, neuroscience, and gene targeting and gene therapy increase the potential for research, industrial and medical applications.  "Manipulating Cells: Innovative Research at Georgia Tech" will take place Thursday, Oct. 18 at 6 p.m. in the Library's Neely Lobby on 1 West. This event is free and open to the public. 

Join us to find out how Georgia Tech researchers are:

  • Engineering nuclear hormone receptors to control the expression of genes in response to small molecule hormones,
  • Characterizing the molecular mechanisms involved in the repair of broken DNA to develop more effective and safe technologies of genome modification, and
  • Investigating how neural groups encode information from the outside world and neural circuits balance plasticity and stability.

This session will feature the following panelists:

Manipulating Cells: Innovative Research at Georgia Tech is the eighth panel in the Blended Research @ the Library series organized by the Faculty Engagement Department of the Georgia Tech Library. Blended Research @ the Library is a panel discussion series focusing on multidisciplinary research. At each session faculty and graduate students from various departments present research in an area that crosses over several disciplines.
