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
*********************************
Join us at the Institute for Electronics and Nanotechnology (IEN) for our annual Technical Exchange Conference. This 1.5 day event covers topics ranging from materials to architectures for tomorrow’s micro-/nano enabled electronic systems, while also providing one-on-one opportunities to engage with industry and academic technical leaders, GT faculty and students.
