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

“Ancestral Remembrances and Descendant Recollections – Multi-generational Studies of Structure and Function in the Nervous System” -

Historical events have generated data indicating that stressors experienced by populations, affect not only the individuals directly exposed to them, but also descendants. Using animal models, our research (and my talk) aims to shed light on the nature and mechanisms by which both ancestral and descendant generations bear imprints of stressful environmental events.
