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

The cover image on this month's edition of Cell Reports is an artistic representation of neural activity during behavior in health (left) and Alzheimer's disease (right), with sharp wave ripples (which are associated with replay) as branches. The research results link synaptic deficits in Alzheimer's disease to dysfunction of neural activity essential for memory. Artist Annie Stewart designed this.
