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

Three researchers from the School of Biological Sciences and the Wallace H. Coulter Department of Biomedical Engineering have published research that identified a large number of genes and gene sets that were potentially useful as transcript-level biomarkers for predicting drug-specific patient survival outcomes. The findings suggest that the drug-specific survival marker genes they found warrant further investigation for insights into drug mechanisms, and for validation as biomarkers to aid cancer therapy decisions. The researchers are Bridget Neary, Jie Zhou, and Peng Qiu.
