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

Researchers in Sandia National Laboratory have discovered that detergents can help optimize the size and shape of catalytic compounds for various reactions. They have enlisted the aid of Younan Xia, a pioneer in nanomaterial synthesis to accelerate the work. Xia has joint appointments in the School of Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering and the School of Chemistry and Biochemistry.
