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

Newly designed hand sanitizer

Hand sanitizer was about to run dangerously low across the U.S. but charitable volunteers from Georgia Tech rescued it by turning to fuel-grade ethanol and a special FDA waiver. Then they donated 7,000 gallons to hospitals and nursing homes. Credit: Georgia Tech / Christopher Moore
