Professors Help Found Multimillion Dollar Math & Biology NSF-Simons Project
Primary tabs
A new national project, which includes the Georgia Institute of Technology, aims to convey the benefits of physics’ age-old intertwining with math upon biology, a science historically less connected with it. The National Science Foundation and the Simons Foundation have launched four centers to do this, funded with $40 million, one of which is headquartered at Georgia Tech and will receive a quarter of the funding.
Founding Members of the Organization include:
- Greg Bleckerman (GaTech SoM math)
- Christine Heitsch (GaTech SoM math)
- Natasha Jonoska (USF math)
- Julie Mitchell (UW-Madison math)
- Peter Bubenik (U. Florida math)
- Elena Dimitrova (Clemson math)
- Scott McKinley (Tulane math)
- Dan Goldman (GaTech physics)
- Francesca Storici (GaTech bio)
- Annalise Paaby (GaTech bio)
- Matt Torres (GaTech bio)
- Hang Lu (GaTech biochem)
- Melissa Kemp (GaTech bio-eng)
- Christine Payne (GaTech mech-eng)
