GTRI hosted representatives from the Department of Defense's Sustainable Technology Evaluation and Demonstration (STED) Program at the Cobb County Research Facility (CCRF).

GTRI is proud to recognize Eric Grigorian, P.E., who has been elected to serve as the 2026 Vice President-Elect for IEEE Member and Geographic Activities (MGA).

GTRI scientists are using wearable instrumentation to study human performance indicators such as electrical activity and oxygenation of the brain, heart rate, respiration, eye movements, and facial expressions to understand how operators respond to stressful conditions.

On June 7, GTRI celebrated the U.S. Army's 250th birthday in Huntsville, Alabama, despite severe weather conditions.

GTRI researchers from the Applied Systems Laboratory (ASL)’s Human Centered Engineering Division (HCED) recently attended the National Defense Industrial Association (NDIA) Human Systems Conference. Their prominent participation at this year’s event is exemplary of the increasingly high-profile role GTRI plays as a human systems "white hat" for the federal government.

GTRI has expanded its Defense-university Affiliated Research Traineeship (DART) Program to Tuskegee University, a historically Black institution in Alabama. The DART Program trains HBCU faculty and students in applied DoD research and offers mentorship and career exposure.

The National Defense Industrial Association (NDIA) Human Systems Division recently announced the election of Stuart Michelson, Associate Division Chief in the Applied Systems Laboratory’s (ASL) Human Centered Engineering Division at the Georgia Tech Research Institute (GTRI), as its new Chair. Since he arrived at GTRI in 2007, Stuart has developed a reputation as an international subject matter expert in Human Systems Engineering and human experience with unmanned systems.
