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

Mary Frank Fox, ADVANCE Professor at the School of Public Policy, was invited last month to participate in the National Academies of Sciences’ Workshop launching a new study on “Addressing the Underrepresentation of Women in Science, Engineering, and Medicine.” The study seeks to understand institutional barriers to the representation of women in scientific fields, and to identify the most successful policies, practices, and strategies in opening doors to women’s participation in the fields. The project will result in a National Academies Report to be issued in 2019/20.
