Please join the College of Sciences in congratulating seven faculty members sharing honors for their work in the 2019-2020 school year at Georgia Tech.
Please join the College of Sciences in welcoming the new leadership of Georgia Tech’s Center for Relativistic Astrophysics (CRA): School of Physics professor Laura Cadonati will serve as CRA Director, and is joined by associate professor Tamara Bogdanović, who will serve as CRA Associate Director.
Built with wheeled appendages that can be lifted and wheels able to wiggle, a new robot known as the “Mini Rover” has developed and tested complex locomotion techniques robust enough to help it climb hills covered with granular material – and avoid the risk of getting ignominiously stuck on some remote planet or moon.
The smartphones in everyone’s purse or pocket could soon become powerful tools in the effort to control coronavirus in the campus community.
Fifth cohort includes four College of Sciences faculty: David Ballantyne, Facundo Fernandez, Brian Hammer, and Jake Soper.
Teams led by School of Physics' Chandra Raman and University of Trento have independently created magnetic solitons in a Bose-Einstein condensate, made from atoms with different spins. The experiments establish a new playground for exploring quantum solitons.
The inaugural round of a new Georgia Tech-Oak Ridge National Laboratory collaborative seed program has resulted in funding for ten Institute recipients, including two Sciences graduate students. More funding is available, and all Georgia Tech Ph.D. students and postdocs in good academic standing can apply.
A School of Physics researcher's quantum simulator has earned a National Science Foundation CAREER Award for the potential to learn more about superconductivity and magnetism in solid materials.
Despite the challenges of the Covid-19 pandemic, the College of Sciences' research programs remain strong, with a number of faculty members receiving grants to pursue their scientific studies.
The malaria drug hydroxychloroquine, which has been promoted as a potential treatment for Covid-19, is known to have potentially serious effects on heart rhythms. Now, a team of researchers has used an optical mapping system to observe exactly how the drug creates serious disturbances in the electrical signals that govern heartbeat.
Professor Michael Schatz will serve as interim chair for the School of Physics beginning July 1, 2020. Learn more about his work, and join us in welcoming him to this role.
Each year, Georgia Tech recognizes faculty and staff who have received campus accolades and awards throughout the previous academic year. Please join us in celebrating and sharing congratulations with this year's recipients.
