Advanced computing and decisioning
My job title is Lead Engineer but that doesn’t begin to describe what we do here from day to day. Our roll as technology leaders within GE means we have the opportunity to wear many hats; technologists, consultants, thought leaders, to name just a few. As a team we solve the technical problems that keeps GE running ahead of the pack.

Researching Material Systems
Hello, you may remember me from my last blog but my name is Andy Trimmer and I work in the Materials Systems technology group at GE Global Research. The Materials Systems technology group is an exciting place to work because of the array of people with different scientific backgrounds developing and refining ideas, processes, and new technologies for the GE businesses. The blog I edit will highlight the work of researchers from Materials Systems.

Welcome to Biosciences at Global Research
Hello! Thanks for coming to the blog! In addition to what you may have read in my bio, I’d like to tell you about why I chose my career as a biologist here at GE Global Research. I was a Neuroscience major in college and was unsure of what do to with my degree when I graduated in 2005. Research seemed like a good choice since I had spent the past year collecting and analyzing data for my senior thesis (in which I studied neuroplasticity in the brain). An opportunity came for me to join the Biosciences Lab at GE working on neurodegenerative disease project aimed at detecting iron in the brain as an early indicator of Alzheimer’s disease. This was right up my alley and a perfect fit!
I quickly realized what an amazing company GE was to work for. Cutting edge research and technology at my fingertips! GE Global Research has given me the chance to expand my knowledge and work on a variety of projects including developing optical imaging agents that highlight the margins of cancerous tumors and (my current project) using novel nanoparticles and MR imaging to determine vascularity in tumors.

A new sleigh for Santa… courtesy of GE technology
GE Global Research has made it a tradition each year to showcase our latest and greatest technology developments during the holiday season. Last year, we had a lot of fun showcasing the first-ever OLED Christmas tree using GE’s flexible OLED panels. As this year’s season approached we started wondering how we could ever top last year’s creativity.
New applications for tissue mapping
Welcome to the blog of Dr. Michael Gerdes. I am a cancer cell biologist working in the Biosciences organization of GE’s Global Research Center in Niskayuna, NY. I joined the team here over 4 years ago after completing my research training in experimental carcinogenesis at the National Cancer Institute, and prior, my doctoral work in cell biology at Baylor College of Medicine in Houston, TX. I have been involved with our Molecular Pathology program and the talented cross disciplinary team of biologists, chemists, bio-informatics, engineers and image analysis specialists, from the beginning. The work of this team is now largely directed towards oncology and linking patient drug response to disease markers as described in my co-worker Fiona Ginty’s blog entries. As well, you can view a video on YouTube that features me talking on some of these projects at the recent Healthymagination showcase in NYC.
