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’s School of Materials Science and Engineering has received an award through the Micromeritics Instrument Grant program. The ASAP 2020 Accelerated Surface Area and Porosimetry System will be used to support ground-breaking nanomaterials research.
The School of Materials Science and Engineering conducts research in a number of areas including ionic transport in microporous solids, porous electrodes for fuel cells, nanomaterials for sensors, porous polymer and gas separation membranes and nanomaterials for the semiconductor industry. According to Gleb Yushin, an assistant professor in the school and principal investigator for the grant, the equipment will provide a critical analytical tool for supporting this ongoing research.
