Alex Robel and Shi Joyce Sim have a new model for how water moves under glaciers. Their theory shows that up to twice the amount of subglacial water that was originally predicted might be draining into the ocean – potentially increasing glacial melt, sea level rise, and biological disturbances.
USG Regents' distinctions are given to those who make outstanding contributions to their respective institutions and may be granted for a period of three years to faculty members from Georgia Tech, Augusta University, Georgia State University, the University of Georgia, and, in special circumstances, other USG institutions.
Research Corporation for Science Advancement has chosen four researchers for its Cottrell Plus SEED (Singular Exceptional Endeavors of Discovery) Awards for 2023, including Tamara Bogdanović for her research, "Risk and Rewards: Pushing Boundaries with RMHD Simulations of Multimessenger Massive Black Hole Binaries".
NASA awarded $6 million to a research team led by Georgia Tech’s Frank Rosenzweig to study how compartmentalization drives evolution. This five-year project, part of NASA’s Interdisciplinary Consortia for Astrobiology Research (ICAR) program, aims to explore how the organization of molecules within cells fosters evolutionary efficiency and novelty.
Georgia Tech researchers will study the organizing principles of compartmentalization in a five-year project called Engine of Innovation: How Compartmentalization Drives Evolution of Novelty and Efficiency Across Scales.

A special issue of Pure and Applied Functional Analysis honors mathematician School of Mathematics Regents' Professor Leonid Bunimovich on his 75th birthday.
Bunimovich's pioneering contributions have shaped modern dynamical systems. He is best known for discovering a fundamental mechanism of chaos in dynamical systems, including systems of chaotic billiards such as the Bunimovich stadium, Bunimovich flowers, and elliptic flowers. Learn about his research in this 2023 news story: Bringing Understanding to Chaotic Dynamics with Billiards, Flowers, and ... Mushrooms?
Georgia Tech School of Mathematics March 16, 2026If you’ve walked the aisles of a grocery store, scrolled through social media, watched television, or set foot in a fast-casual restaurant chain in recent months, you know that protein is having its moment.
So, why are brands pushing protein? An International Food Information Council study found that 70% of adults are looking to increase their protein intake. But as it makes its way into more products than ever before, is it too much of a good thing?
Lesley Baradel is a registered dietitian, nutritionist, and lecturer in the College of Sciences at Georgia Tech. In this episode of "Generating Buzz", she digs into the protein-packed trend, with implications ranging from health and wellness to marketing and how the rise of GLP-1s factors into the increased focus on the macronutrient.
