Long-Term Lizard Study Challenges the Rules of Evolutionary Biology
By lassoing lizards, putting tiny chips on their legs, and tracking them for three years, Georgia Tech’s James Stroud revealed why species often appear unchanged for millions of years despite Charles Darwin’s theory of constant evolution.

From Seafloor to Space: New Bacterial Proteins Shine Light on Climate and Astrobiology
Georgia Tech researchers have uncovered eco-friendly bacterial proteins that stabilize methane clathrates, offering a green solution to climate challenges and potential implications for astrobiology.
As Temperatures Climb, Flying Insects Slower to Migrate to Cooler Elevations
In response to changing climates, many plants and animals are moving to higher elevations, seeking cooler temperatures. But a new study finds that flying insects like bees and moths may struggle with insurmountable issues to this escape route.
Echoes of Extinctions: Novel Method Unearths Ecosystem Disruptions
Their novel approach showed how mammal traits evolved with changing environments and revealed factors that contributed to biodiversity loss.
Echoes of Extinctions: Novel Method Unearths Disruptions in Mammal Trait-Environment Relationships
Their novel approach showed how mammal traits evolved with changing environments over time and revealed factors that contributed to biodiversity loss.
Creating the Tools to Conserve Our Wildlife
Scientists at the Georgia Institute of Technology and Max Planck Institute for Intelligent Systems in Stuttgart have published a perspectives piece on the different tools used throughout the world aiding in the conservation of wildlife and biodiversity.
Georgia Tech Making Waves in Tsunami Research
Researchers develop volcanic tsunami simulator to closely study potential natural disasters
Thinning Ice Sheets May Drive Sharp Rise in Subglacial Waters
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.
