Collectively responsible for roughly half of global carbon fixation, diverse groups of microbes coexist while relying on limited nutrients even as some microbes depend on energy from the sun to grow via photosynthesis. Precisely because microbes compete for scarce nutrients, how such a vast diversity of ocean microbes coexist has long puzzled scientists. Researchers from Georgia Tech, in collaboration with 13 other institutions, aimed to shed light on the subject as part of new work published in Nature Ecology and Evolution.
The same forces that create circular eddies of water in Earth's oceans are also producing giant atmospheric systems of vortices along Jupiter's poles, according to new research from an international team of scientists that includes Annalisa Bracco, professor in the School of Earth and Atmospheric Sciences.
Cancer patients undergoing chemotherapy can experience severe side effects that persist long after treatments end. A new study led by Tim Cope and Nick Housley has found a novel pathway for understanding why these debilitating conditions happen — and why scientists should focus on "all of the possible neural processes that deliver sensory or motor problems to a patient’s brain" and not just those that occur away from the center of the body.
James Stringfellow, an employment specialist with experience helping Atlanta’s veterans and entertainment industry, will now assist College of Sciences students and instructors with career mapping, planning, and workforce issues.
Researchers from the Schools of Chemistry and Biochemistry, and Biological Sciences, have published a study shedding new light on the balance between oxidants and antioxidants produced by the human body.
In new research with the National Science Foundation and the National Environment Research Council, Jenny McGuire will study the fossil record in Africa to inform conservation biology decisions and forecast how humans and climate affect wildlife. The study will build a better understanding between the continent’s animals, physical traits developed over time, and their relationships and responses to environmental changes.
