A Georgia Tech study challenges a decades-old explanation for one of neuroscience's most famous signals, revealing an intrinsic neural code for tracking time.

Four Georgia Tech doctoral students spent the summer working on their dissertation research through the Energy Policy and Innovation Center's (EPIcenter) Summer Research Program. The competitive program provides a full summer-semester stipend, along with mentorship and professional development opportunities, to support emerging energy scholars.

"One of the goals of the program is to give students the time and support needed to make meaningful progress on their dissertation research while helping them understand the broader policy, economic, and societal implications of their work," said Laura Taylor, director of EPIcenter.

The stipends enable participants to focus exclusively on clearly defined research goals. The program also supports peer discussions, communication training, and interdisciplinary learning opportunities designed to strengthen both their research and professional development.

This year's cohort explored topics ranging from electricity markets and air pollution to critical mineral supply chains and grid modernization, highlighting the breadth of energy-related research taking place across Georgia Tech.

The Georgia Tech researcher and longtime neuroscience community leader will help catalyze new collaborations and research opportunities across the Institute for Neuroscience, Neurotechnology, and Society (INNS).

Using unprecedented observations of Ukraine’s 2023 Kakhovka Dam collapse, Georgia Tech researchers found that widely used flood models underestimated both water levels and flood timing.

The Institute for Matter and Systems will provide support for three new and four renewed research projects to advance materials, devices, and processes.

Regents' Professor Facundo M. Fernández will collaborate on research in mass spectrometry, an analytical technique used to measure the mass-to-charge ratio of ions for research.
