GTRI Director Mike Gazarik, Ph.D., is the featured guest on the latest episode of the Georgia Tech Research Podcast.

In his first 90 days as Director of the Georgia Tech Research Institute, Mike Gazarik, Ph.D., is building the foundation of his tenure on certain core ideas: mission, people, culture, speed, and impact. They form an early blueprint for how he sees GTRI, why he came back, and where he believes the Institute can go next.

For Mike, being GTRI Director is not just a stop along the way, or a late-career experiment. It is something more personal and more final than that.

“This is it. This is the ultimate chapter for me,” he said. “I’m not trying to go anywhere, do anything. I’m really just trying to help.”
