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

Full Summary: 16th Annual Hilton Head Workshop - Regenerative Medicine: Harnessing Biology for Regeneration with Short Course in New Concepts in Biocompatibility for Tissue Engineering & Regenerative Medicine
Annual Hilton Head WorkshopIncluding Short Course in "New Concepts in Biocompatibility for Tissue Engineering & Regenerative Medicine"
The 2012 workshop will once again be held at the beautiful Sea Pines Resort on Hilton Head Island. The goals of the workshop are to bring together academic & corporate scientists and their students working at the cutting edge of regenerative medicine technologies and provide an intimate forum for sharing the latest insights and discoveries in this rapidly progressing field.
Active researchers, graduate, postdoctoral student researchers, and those interested in keeping pace with the latest developments in regenerative medicine are encouraged to participate.
