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

Cichlids are found in freshwater habitats worldwide. Biologist J. Todd Streelman studies the varieties from Lake Malawi in Africa because species possess very similar genomes but drastically different forms, functions and behaviors. Streelman's lab combines study of the ecology, genomics and development of these fishes to understand how organisms evolve diversity.
