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

The Center for Chemical Evolution: A Systematic Approach to the Origin of Biology
In 2007, Georgia Tech was awarded a three year grant for a Phase I Chemical Bonding Center that is focused on understanding the chemical origins of the first biopolymers. I will discuss the scientific questions being addressed by center members, progress made within our first two years, and the expansion of the center as we prepare for a competition to become an NSF Phase II Center for Chemical Innovation.
