Despite a long-held hypothesis that oxygen determined the size of large, complex multicellular organisms during the early Earth, researchers have found the early rise in global oxygen, should have, “in fact strongly constrain[ed] the evolution of macroscopic multicellularity, rather than selecting for larger and more complex organisms.”

Schutz, an adjunct professor in the School of Physics, member of the Center for Relativistic Astrophysics, professor at Cardiff University, and former director and founding director of the Max Planck Institute for Gravitational Physics (Albert Einstein Institute), is the recipient of top honors from the world's oldest independent scientific academy. Schutz is elected for seminal contributions to relativistic astrophysics, including driving the field of gravitational wave searches — helping lead to their direct detection in 2015.

Six students in the College of Sciences are honored with 2021 awards for significant accomplishments during a challenging school year. 

Two student teams won this year’s Georgia Tech’s 2021 spring semester Convergence Innovation Competition (CIC), including Team Neurogram, led by Daniele Gavetti De Mari, an undergraduate student studying neuroscience, and Phillip M. Kinney, an undergraduate studying computer science.

Brady Bove reflects on biomedical engineering, leadership studies, cognitive psychology, senior design, meeting friends and her fiancé, and a favorite Georgia Tech memory — involving classical physics and a box of Sublime Doughnuts on a Friday night. 

Watson, who is graduating with dual degrees in biology and industrial engineering, plus dual minors in social justice and physiology, shares six years of adventures at Tech and exploring the intersections between biology, engineering, health and wellness, and outer space.
