T-cell sample in vitro ready for test of implanted gene switch

*********************************
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

T-cell sample in vitro ready for test of implanted gene switch

On a workbench, samples are prepared for an in vitro check to make sure researchers can flip on a genetic switch they implanted in T-cells. Location: Gabe Kwong lab. Credit: Georgia Tech / Allison Carter
