The Center for Teaching Innovation published two series of adaptable case studies, from the Creative Teaching Awards and Provost’s Working Group for Innovation in Assessment, showcasing new Cornell faculty approaches to assessing student learning.
One solution for preventing pungent aerosols from ejecting into the air: Cut onions slowly with a sharpened blade.
A federal stop-work order has threatened the progress a Weill Cornell Medicine researcher has made in understanding a lethal and treatment-resistant form of prostate cancer.
The president of the Camille and Henry Dreyfus Foundation will present Abruña with the award in a 4 p.m. ceremony in the Meshri Family Auditorium, Baker Laboratory Room 200 and also livestreamed.
Researchers devised a new method to image intact bacterial cells and large organelle up to 500-800 nanometers thick – a roughly fivefold improvement over current methods.
Ithaca Community Recovery schedules more than 200 meetings a month for 35 groups - a new platform designed by project team Hack4Impact will make it easier to populate, track and edit the calendar.
Physics Professor Robert Thorne's company just celebrated 20 years in business and its 25th patent.
After expanding to its peak size about 11 billion years from now, the universe will begin to contract – snapping back like a rubber band to a single point at the end, according to a Cornell physicist.
By combining the design principles and materials of soft robotics with microscale combustions, researchers created a high-resolution electronic tactile display that can operate in messy, unpredictable environments.
A Cornell researcher and collaborators have developed a machine-learning model that encapsulates and quantifies the valuable intuition of human experts in the quest to discover new quantum materials.
Drawing on cutting-edge technology and interdisciplinary expertise, researchers are launching Menopause Health Engineering, a new initiative to uncover how menopause shapes health and disease.
The Center for Teaching Innovation will host “What Works,” on Oct. 1, featuring presentations, the Canvas Course Spotlight awardees, and a poster showcase that will demonstrate engaged learning approaches from Cornell faculty teaching in a diverse range of courses and fields.
Tianyi Chen is pushing the boundaries of artificial intelligence by asking a pressing question: What if AI could be engineered not just to optimize for a single outcome, but to make smarter, more balanced decisions — much like humans do?
Jack Szostak, Ph.D. ’77, will return to campus to give the 2025 Ef Racker Lecture on Oct. 9.
A new study revealed how a deadly form of pancreatic cancer enters the bloodstream, solving a long-standing mystery of how the disease spreads and identifying a promising target for therapy.
Cornell professors are sharing what they’ve learned about best practices in physics labs with physics faculty and instructors nationwide through The Introductory Physics Lab Institute.
Scott Emr, the Samuel C. and Nancy M. Fleming Professor Emeritus in the College of Arts and Sciences, has won the World Laureate Association Prize, one of the world’s highest-funded scientific awards.
Nozomi Ando, professor of chemistry and chemical biology in the College of Arts and Sciences, has been named a Schmidt Polymath, part of a global cohort of eight scientists and engineers who will each receive up to $2.5 million over five years.
Cornell researchers have demonstrated that, by zapping a thin film with ultrafast pulses of low-frequency infrared light, they can cause its lattice to atomically expand and contract billions of times per second, potentially switching its electronic, magnetic or optical properties on and off.
The Cornell NanoScale Science and Technology Facility has enabled scientists and engineers from academia and industry to conduct groundbreaking research, thanks to continuous support from the National Science Foundation. But that funding is now at risk.
