Georgia Tech Hosts ARCS Atlanta for an Educational Tour and Silver Anniversary Luncheon

Georgia Institute of Technology hosted the Atlanta Chapter of ARCS for a tour of their new Engineered Biosystems Building and presentations by some of the researchers there. The new building features 200,000 square feet of technologically advanced laboratories and open floorplan office space to encourage collaboration between researchers across disciplinary boundries. Partnerships between faculty from Sciences, Engineering, Computing, and ultimately all Colleges, and between Georgia Tech researchers and those from Emory University, Children’s Healthcare of Atlanta, and other institutions will enable cutting edge research in biomedicine and biotechnology.

Thanks from Alum Alejandro Toriella, PhD, Assistant Professor, Industrial Engineering, Georgia Tech

Thank you very much for your support. It meant a lot. I had the opportunity to return to Tech as a faculty member last year. I’m very happy to be back and hope I can advise a future ARCS scholar soon!

Thanks from Scholar Kira Newman

"I can only begin to express how grateful I am for the freedom to pursue an independent line of research without having to worry about how I will pay for the necessary lab supplies or training. This award is allowing me to answer broader and more valuable questions than I had previously thought possible... Thank you so much for your kindness, generosity, and belief in my potential as a scientist."

Thanks from Alum Eliot Quon, Postdoctoral Researcher at National Renewable Energy Laboratory

ARCS Foundation has been a highlight of my academic career thus far, thank you for the support!
