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

Potter and Haider AFM white noise 2

Through the counterintuitive move of adding electronic white noise, Daniel Potter (left) and Ahmad Haider (right) significantly increased the precision of atomic force microscopy to measure the walls of energy wells during molecular interactions. Their advancement could help biotech researchers observe fine details of biomolecular interactions.
