Georgia Tech engineers are building a cancer "atlas" that will offer a roadmap to finding multiple kinds of tumors earlier than ever — when they’re most treatable. It’s a big swing powered by $49.5M from @arpa-h.bsky.social & starting to deliver on its vision: b.gatech.edu/42LnlvH

Imagine if building new medicines or sustainable materials was as straightforward as snapping together LEGO bricks. That’s what Georgia Tech engineers are working on — creating 8 ready-to-use modules that could be mixed and matched to support different kinds of biotechnology. b.gatech.edu/4hbRLNG

Road curves can be deadly, accounting for 1/4 of fatal crashes. Civil engineers are using AI & a smartphone to calculate safe speeds for curves, helping communities check dangerous stretches much more quickly. They’re deploying the tech in a pilot w/ Georgia’s Forsyth County. b.gatech.edu/3KKjyZc

Dean’s Scholar & biomedical engineering student Nathan Wallace has used a prosthetic leg for most of his life. Now he’s using his experience as an amputee to help researchers design and test better robotic prostheses powered by AI. b.gatech.edu/3KL09HD

We’re doubling the power of our Clark Scholars Program, thanks to an $11M investment from the Clark Foundation. The gift means we’ll be able to support 2x as many engineering students with scholarships, mentoring, community, and much, much more. b.gatech.edu/3Vk7gc8

Full house to hear from alumnus Greg White about his career in private equity, the value of taking risks, and how he still uses his engineering skills at our latest Dean’s Distinguished Lecture, hosted by @rbeyah.bsky.social.

Same shipping time but cheaper? A new Georgia Tech study shows moving Atlanta-bound cargo through Savannah instead of West Coast ports is just as fast and costs less. b.gatech.edu/45ZoEHX

Fast charging is supposed to wear out batteries. Except, what if it didn’t? Georgia Tech engineers found higher currents can actually make batteries made from zinc last longer. It’s a first step to making them an attractive alternative to lithium-ion batteries. b.gatech.edu/47dOLNK

Making breathable air for astronauts is a complex process with heavy machinery that needs frequent maintenance. Not ideal as humans stretch deeper into space. Georgia Tech aerospace engineers have produced oxygen with a simpler, lighter system – using magnets. b.gatech.edu/4oOn5Wb

As students return to campus next week, they’ll find a new cycle track for bikes, scooters & skateboards — thanks partly to civil & environmental engineering students who worked on the idea as part of their senior design project & then as engineers at the track’s design firm. b.gatech.edu/45QsDrr

Inspired by sea shells, @christos-edward.bsky.social has created a process to make normally unpredictable recycled plastic both reliable and strong. How he’s using nature’s approach: b.gatech.edu/4m8Bt9O

A motorcycle accident derailed Ignacio Montoya’s plans for life just as he was preparing to graduate from Georgia Tech in 2012. Now he’s back for a Ph.D. and working to help others with spinal cord injuries live better, more independent lives. b.gatech.edu/4ltAXSO

A future of autonomous drones, air taxis, and other new aircraft means more crowded skies in urban areas — and much different flying conditions. Aerospace engineer Marilyn Smith is creating tools to predict these tricky conditions & plan for safe flying. b.gatech.edu/4557F6U

Shao-Yun Hsu has spent years honing her medical & surgical skills. But to really help patients with lymphedema, she decided she needed one more degree: a Georgia Tech biomedical engineering Ph.D. With Brandon Dixon, she's working to supercharge lymph node transplant surgery. b.gatech.edu/44WKrzE
