The Georgia Institute of Technology has received a $100,000 Grand Challenges Explorations grant from the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation. The program funds individuals worldwide to explore ideas that can break the mold in how persistent global health and development challenges are solved.
Tech students are undoubtedly considered some of the brightest minds in the world, proving to be true at the semester capstone expo this spring. Spectators witnessed a variety of projects, including silverware wrapping machines, automated beverage mixers, and socially responsible projects such as rice transporters and hydroponic systems for developing nations.
Researchers from the Georgia Institute of Technology and University of California San Francisco have advanced scientists’ ability to view a clear picture of a single cellular structure in motion. By identifying molecules using compressed sensing, this new method provides needed spatial resolution plus a faster temporal resolution than previously possible.
National Engineers Week ran from February 19-25 and featured campus-wide events and competitions for people all of interests whether they were engineering majors or not. This year's version of the annual event saw over 400 Georgia Tech students participate in a wide range of events including a friendly competition between the engineering majors. Points were awarded for placing first ro second in daily competitions as well as for participation with the results being normalized for major size.
