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

Toxic seaweed might be a coral’s worst nightmare. So what do corals do when danger strikes? They call in backup. New research indicates that coral has a way to ‘call’ upon certain fish for help when under siege by toxin-releasing seaweed. “This species of coral is recruiting inch-long bodyguards,” explains Mark Hay, a co-author of this published research and professor of biology at Georgia Tech.
