Science square taking shape Atlanta continues to evolve. The much anticipated "science square" in northwest Atlanta is taking shape one year after a ribbon cutting. FOX 5's Kevyn Stewart has the story.

I had the pleasure of chatting with @fox5atlanta.bsky.social about the economic benefits of the growing research communities in #Atlanta. www.fox5atlanta.com/video/1668922

The thing about scientific research is that it’s one of the few national investments that’s a clear public good even if you entirely discount the actual ostensible point of it.

It’s been fun being in Atlanta for an unusual snow storm. Snow can bring so much joy. And headaches, but I captured some of the joy here. @gtresearchnews.bsky.social @gatechengineers.bsky.social #CoulterBME

I know of a super cute art store near the med school if you want to pick up a gift for a special friend. I third the garbage plate and place. There’s also a new sushi restaurant near the med school that’s good. And a really good dumpling restaurant that’s closer to RIT,

I was thinking about this memory the other day! I agree with @joanmeiners.bsky.social that it was fun.

Spicy ketchup chips. Those are my fave. And crispy crunch.
