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

Abstracts for this year's Georgia Tech Research & Innovation Conference (GTRIC), which will take place Feb. 6-7, 2012, are being accepted until Friday, Oct. 14. Information about the conference and instructions for submitting abstracts may be found online from Graduate SGA.
As in the past, the conference has both a research presentation and an innovation component. There are significant prizes for the winning research posters: five $5,000 one-year fellowships for PhD students and up to 30 grants (up to $1,500 each) supporting student travel to professional meetings. The innovation component, sponsored by the Enterprise Innovation Institute, offers the opportunity to win the $15,000 Edison Prize that supports commercialization of the innovation.
