Reppy was recognized along with David Bishop, Ph.D. ’78, for "groundbreaking experiments" they did on helium 50 years ago.
Cloud cover is bad for picnics and for viewing stars through a telescope. But an exoplanet with dense or even total cloud cover could help astronomers searching for signs of life beyond our planet, Cornell researchers have found.
Prof. Coates is being recognized “for transformative work at the interface of chemical catalyst design and polymer science, leading to novel ways of making biodegradable and recyclable plastics.”
Researchers used advanced data analytics to create a state-by-state look at that environmental impact of the AI boom and how to make the computing infrastructure that supports it more sustainable.
Seiberg, professor in the School of Natural Sciences at the Institute for Advanced Study, will explore string theory and other aspects of scientific progress
A multicollege team has developed a prototype of a knitting machine that creates solid, knitted shapes, adding stitches in any direction so users can construct a wide variety of shapes and add stiffness to different parts of the object.
Cornell researchers and collaborators have developed a neural implant so small that it can rest on a grain of salt, yet it can wirelessly transmit brain activity data in a living animal for more than a year.
Researchers develop a new bacterium that can absorb DNA directly from its surroundings and incorporate it into its own genetic code.
To build a winning off-road car, the student-led Baja Racing team built on the legacy and lessons of those who came before them.
Cornell has won three of 15 major grants from the Bezos Earth Fund, awarded to leverage artificial intelligence in the fight against climate change and environmental challenges.
Tracking heart and lung health without wires or electrodes could be a game-changer for home care, assisted living or for patients who resist traditional wearables.
Cornell historian Corey Earle shared stories of remarkable women throughout Cornell’s history during an Oct. 25 brunch as part of the Trustee Council Annual Meeting.
Astronomers have generated the first three-dimensional map of a planet orbiting another star, revealing an atmosphere with distinct temperature zones – one so scorching that it breaks down water vapor, a team co-led by a Cornell expert reports in new research.
Newly published digital collections at Cornell University Library explore areas of Cornell history. Freely accessible online, the three new collections were digitized from materials held in Cornell University Library’s Rare and Manuscript Collections.
Researchers used single-molecule super-resolution reaction imaging to gain a clearer view of what happens, and where, in surface metal-hydrogen intermediates, which spark electrocatalytic transformations.
Five professors from across campus will advocate that their discipline is the most important to save for the future in the annual Apocalypse Debate, sponsored by Logos, the undergraduate philosophy journal and club.
A Cornell research group has developed a cyclodextrin-based fibrous membrane that in lab testing removed approximately 90% of aqueous triclosan, an antibacterial agent that poses a threat to aquatic organisms.
Newly admitted into the Praxis Center business incubator, Quantera aims to improve scientific sample collection.
The next episode of the Startup Cornell podcast features Chi, co-founder of Blackboard and former CEO and co-founder of WeddingWire, which merged with XO Group in 2008 to form The Knot Worldwide.
The Northeastern Robotics Conference (NERC), held Saturday, Oct. 11 at Cornell, featured more than 100 robots research projects from the region, including a shadowboxing droid and a backflipping robot dog.
