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

GaP Seminar Series
Presenters:
Nathan Hotaling- Advisor, Julia Babensee
"Dendritic Cells and the 'Atkins' Immune Response"
Abstract Identification of molecular characteristics that are integral for dendritic cell recognition of pathogen associated carbohydrate motifs and development of a high throughput assay to test the dendritic cell response to large arrays of carbohydrates in a variety of contexts.
Lucia Mirabella - Advisor, Ajit Yoganathan
"4D Image-based Approach for CFD in Compliant Blood Vessels"
An alternative way to simulate blood flow in a compliant vascular wall, exploiting the availability of accurate time resolved medical images to obtain information on the motion of the vascular structure, will be presented. The goal is to apply this methodology to medically relevant cases as the study of blood flow features inside patient-specific total cavopulmonary connections.
The Graduate and Post-Doc (GaP) Seminar Series is a weekly event of biotechnology related research presentations by two graduate students or post-docs of IBB and is co-sponsored by BME. It is held every Wednesday at 12:00pm in IBB 1128 and refreshments are provided. If your research group or department would like to present at future seminars, please contact Manu Platt, PhD at manu.platt@bme.gatech.edu.
