A highly interdisciplinary program with unparalleled flexibility,
preparing the next generation of scientists for impactful careers
in research and beyond.
Professor Joel E. Kostka has been named a Union Fellow by the American Geophysical Union, joining a slate of 53 international researchers selected as 2024 AGU Fellows for “significant contributions to the Earth and space sciences.”
Understanding and predicting self-organization, especially in systems that are out of equilibrium, like living things, is an enduring goal of statistical physics.
Raquel Lieberman has received new NIH support for long-running research into myocilin, a protein linked to childhood glaucoma. The professor is joined by Ph.D. student Gwen Thomas in the search for answers.
In a landmark study led by Georgia Tech, researchers demonstrate a first-of-its kind way to synthesize amino acids that uses more carbon than it emits.
Ignacio Taboada has been awarded an NSF grant to build a sensor trigger system for the Pacific Ocean Neutrino Experiment — a powerful neutrino detector that will be built more than 2,600 meters under the surface of the Pacific Ocean.
School of Mathematics Associate Professor Molei Tao has been honored for his work on the foundations of machine learning, particularly diffusion generative models.
School of Mathematics Assistant Professor Alexander Dunn has been honored for his contributions to the field of mathematics, particularly his work solving the Kummer-Patterson Conjecture on the distribution of cubic Gauss sums.
