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
*********************************
GTNeuro will hold its first general meeting for the semester. GTNeuro is a collaborative effort across majors to express and organize interest in neuroscience-related fields on the Georgia Tech campus, along with students and faculty at Emory, Georgia State and other major neuroscience centers throughout Atlanta's quickly growing neuroscience scene.
We will be discussing the new strategic plan for GTNeuro as well as background information about the organization. A few of the key points that will be addressed are the types and nature of events (research events, networking events, discussion events, educational events, guest speaker events, volunteer events, advocacy events, social events and newsletter activities) we are currently planning, as well as the status of our push for a neurobiotechnology minor at Tech. In addition, upcoming event dates for January and February and ways to become more involved in club activities through new leadership positions will be discussed.
Just a few of the things this includes are: hosting social events with like-minded peers, guest speaker lectures on various aspects of neuroscience, volunteering events at neuroscience related institutions/events, the creation of a neuroscience minor, coordinating neuro research events/mentorships, and much more! Involvement is a great way to network and explore your interests in neuroscience.
The general meeting is not limited to members or individuals of a certain major so if you are curious about neuroscience or what we are all about, come to our general meeting and find out! Don’t be afraid to invite interested friends and peers.
