Researchers at the Georgia Institute of Technology have developed a concept that would make Martian rocket fuel, on Mars, that could be used to launch future astronauts back to Earth.
John F. McDonald and his research team have created a ‘multi-algorithm’ machine learning approach to boost accuracy in predicting drug responses for ovarian cancer patients.
Lateral flow assays often called ‘dipsticks’ have been a popular point-of-care testing platform for decades (think, pregnancy tests, glucose tests, even coronavirus tests). But they have limitations. A team of researchers is overcoming those limitations with development of a flow control technology, turning these simple tests into complex biomedical assays.
Researchers led by Jeffrey Skolnick have designed a new AI-based “decision prioritization tool” that combines data on protein pathways with common Covid-19 side effects and known patient comorbidities. The tool offers possible targeted treatment options with existing FDA-approved drugs to foster better health outcomes for individuals fighting Covid-19.
Future vaccine delivery may rely on everyday items like BBQ lighters and microneedles, thanks to the ingenuity of a team of Georgia Institute of Technology and Emory University researchers.
New exosuit invented by Georgia Tech researchers reduces muscular exertion required for rotating and twisting motions.
To make a micro-robot that moves, look to what nature does, first.
The paper, “Anger in Consumer Reviews: Unhelpful but Persuasive?” published in the September 2021 issue of MIS Quarterly, challenges a well-accepted assumption by both researchers and practitioners that more helpful reviews are ultimately more influential. Specifically, their research examines how emotional expressions of anger in a negative review influence the way the review is perceived by its readers.
A new study from two researchers at the Georgia Institute of Technology provides both hope and a potentially grim future for damaged coral reefs. In their research paper, "Biodiversity has a positive but saturating effect on imperiled coral reefs," published October 13 in Science Advances, Cody Clements and Mark Hay found that increasing coral richness by ‘outplanting’ a diverse group of coral species together improves coral growth and survivorship.
According to a new analysis by researchers at Georgia Tech’s Ivan Allen College of Liberal Arts, homeowners who install solar panels wind up using more electricity than before going green, a finding that could have implications for energy planning and climate change mitigation efforts.
Georgia Institute of Technology Professor Nga Lee “Sally” Ng has earned a $12 million grant from the National Science Foundation (NSF) Mid-Scale Research Infrastructure program to provide high time-resolution (every 1 to 15 minutes), long-term measurements of the properties of atmospheric particulates known as aerosols, which have significant effects on health and climate change.
Newly developed device shows the potential to automate the critical task of detecting IV infiltration
Awards draw on Georgia Tech and the Georgia Tech Research Institute (GTRI) expertise across advanced, high-temperature materials science and aerospace and mechanical engineering research — areas critical for future advances of hypersonic vehicles.
Georgia Tech researchers have recently discovered a new side channel attack that is effective on a wide range of low-end phones. All that's needed for the attack to work is to place a sensor close to the phone, for example, under the coffee table where the phone is sitting. If the sensor bears witness to a single secure transaction, like a bank login, then the attacker can immediately break the user's encryption and forge their digital signature.
Researchers are developing a robot that utilizes deep learning to automate certain aspects of the peach cultivation process, which could be a boon for many Georgia peach farms grappling with a shortage of workers. The self-navigating robot uses an embedded 3D camera to determine which trees need to be pruned or thinned, and removes the branches or peaches using a claw-like device attached to its arm.
.Researchers at Georgia Tech have uncovered new insights into the fabrication of carbon membranes that have the potential to drive significant cost savings once the solution for xylene isolation separation is scaled for industrial use.
A new paper co-authored by Georgia Tech found that women — as compared to their male counterparts — receive less credit for the work they put into academic publications, more frequently experience authorship disputes, and often end up losing out on opportunities for future collaboration as a result.
In a study published in the journal Nature Biomedical Engineering, Georgia Tech researchers build on the lab’s body of work exploring remotely controlled cell therapies, in which the researchers can precisely target tumors, wherever they are in the body, with a local deposition of heat. The latest study shows the system cured cancer in mice, and the team’s approach not only shrunk tumors but prevented relapse – critical for long-term survival. Further studies will delve into additional tailoring of T-cells, as well as how heat will be deposited at the tumor site.
Today, Georgia Tech received two National Science Foundation (NSF) Artificial Intelligence Research Institutes awards, totaling $40 million. A third award for $20 million was granted to the Georgia Research Alliance (GRA), with Georgia Tech serving as one of the leading academic institutions.
