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

Richard Lipton is one of the original pioneers in the field of DNA computing. Now serving as a professor for the School of Computer Science in the College of Computing at the Georgia Institute of Technology, his research primarily, but not exclusively, focuses on theory. He also has made important contributions in the areas of program testing, software engineering and DNA computing. This latter area combines molecular biology and computer science. Lipton has held faculty appointments at Yale University, the University of California, Berkeley and Princeton University before joining Georgia Tech. In addition to his computer science academic appointments, Lipton was the founding director of a computer science research laboratory for Panasonic Corp. and is a chief consulting scientist at Telcordia (formerly Bellcore).
