Georgia Tech scientists and engineers are building a new DOE-funded instrument that captures 3D images of plant-microbe chemical reactions underground in an interdisciplinary effort to develop biofuels and fertilizers — and help mitigate climate change.
A new study points to possible help for restoring marine ecosystems — and provides more data on the role microbes play in marsh plant health and productivity.
A citizen science initiative led by a Georgia Tech alum has turned a community’s concerns into a collaborative effort — which includes Biological Sciences Professor Joel Kostka — to study and restore Charleston’s degraded salt marshes.
CMDI merges disciplines, aggressively recruiting microbiologist ‘superstars’ to take back the high ground from antibiotic-resistant pathogens and emerging diseases — and to harness microbes for new medicines, cleaner environments, and climate solutions.
Georgia Tech researchers are teaming up with NASA to study bacteria on the International Space Station to help define how scientists and healthcare professionals combat antibiotic-resistant bacteria for long-duration space missions.
The study, lead by researchers at Georgia Tech, uncovers how weakening prehistoric ocean currents impacted North Atlantic nutrient levels and ocean life, supporting predictions about how today's oceans might react to a changing climate.
NSF REUs, a new community college initiative, conferences and workshops offer ample opportunities for students — current, prospective, and visiting — to hone their research skills in the College of Sciences.
