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

Researchers (l-r) Richard Blob, Ben McInroe and Dan Goldman examine a robot named MuddyBot whose locomotion was inspired by the mudskipper. The robot has two limbs and a powerful tail to move though a trackway that can be raised to simulate granular slopes. Blob is a professor at Clemson University; McInroe was a student at Georgia Tech when the research was conducted, and Goldman is a professor at Georgia Tech (Credit: Rob Felt, Georgia Tech)
