The astronomy department will host a free public astronomy symposium Sept. 17 featuring expert talks on astrobiology, exoplanets, stellar death and cosmic origins. The event will highlights astronomy research and graduate student discoveries.
Researchers developed a method that uses krypton gas to slash the deposition temperature of the corrosion-resistant metal tantalum, resulting in thin films that have substantially higher electronic conductivity.
Six new faculty members will join Cornell Tech during the coming year, bringing expertise in AI, machine learning, programming languages, and operations research.
Researchers developed an ultrafast-dissolving nanofiber film that can deliver a cocktail of three drugs so quickly and effectively, 90% of the formulation is released in less than two seconds.
Cornell physics researchers have developed a new framework for studying how biomolecular condensates form and dissolve in cells.
A genetically engineered bacterium can rapidly break down one of Earth’s most abundant minerals, opening a promising new pathway for removing CO2 from the atmosphere and recovering critical elements, according to new Cornell research.
A company founded by a Cornell doctoral alum is using microneedle technology to create a pain-free tattoo experience.
The 3,681 first-year students and 603 transfers who begin moving to campus Aug. 17, hail from 49 states plus Washington, D.C., Puerto Rico and American Samoa, and 62 countries.
Using a photochemically driven labeling technique, a Cornell-led research group has devised a way to capture cancer-specific protein-to-protein interactions, which could spawn targeted therapies for prostate and other forms of the disease.
The August Startup Cornell podcast features doctoral students Doris Xu and Katrina Davis, two founders who were part of a summer Prototyping Hardware Accelerator at Rev: Ithaca Startup Works, a business incubator and startup workspace in downtown Ithaca.
A Project Hail Mary screening Aug. 28 at Cornell Cinema features astronomers Lisa Kaltenegger and Abigail Bohl discussing habitable rocky exoplanets.
Researchers found that while the smoother, quieter ride of an electric bus was appealing to those who already rode public transportation, those advantages weren’t enough to lure drivers away from their cars.
Researchers and extension staff translated complex research into a hands-on curriculum – including the construction and deployment of floating robots – for New York State teachers and their students.
Artificial intelligence is aiding the search for better battery materials while using a creative approach to chemistry to expand the design space for electrolytes, unlocking new possibilities for safer, higher-performing energy storage.
James Lloyd, professor of astronomy in the College of Arts and Sciences who worked at the intersection of astronomy, instrumentation and spacecraft engineering to find innovative ways to study and characterize exoplanets, died on July 15 in Ithaca.
Cornell Tech has appointed two longtime faculty leaders to new academic leadership roles.
One year after unveiling a first-of-its-kind “microwave brain” microchip capable of computing on ultrafast data and wireless signals, researchers from the Cornell Duffield College of Engineering have shown how the chip can encode information into its own language.
Researchers studying ribosomes, AI and quantum computing are among 13 early-career professors from Cornell who’ve recently been awarded National Science Foundation Faculty Early Career Development Awards.
Light typically interacts with a material the same way whether it enters through the front or the back. Cornell researchers have demonstrated a simple route to breaking that symmetry, with possibilities for photonics and quantum information processing.
As psychedelic drugs gain more support from the medical community as a potential treatment for severe depression, Cornell researchers are making crucial discoveries that explain how compounds such as psilocybin work on the brain.
