Using low-amplitude vibration, researchers show the ability to control the flow rate of a dense liquid. This discovery has potential applications in advanced technology fields, including 3-D printing.
Cornell researchers are engineering planar bacterial outer membrane-like supported bilayers, which have potential in the screening of antibiotics as well as cell-free and other applications.
Striving for a future with smaller electric bills and a diminished need for more power plants, the NSF has awarded Cornell researchers $1 million to improve new residential electric storage systems.
Cornell is pursuing a project that has the potential to eliminate 110,000 metric tons of carbon from its annual footprint and establish one of the country's most advanced geothermal systems to heat the Ithaca campus.
Anthony Ryan, professor at the University of Sheffield, U.K., has been named the 2016 Mary Upson Visiting Lecturer in Materials Science and Engineering and will deliver several campus lectures.
Researchers from the College of Engineering and Weill Cornell Medicine will fight the spread of breast cancer and other cancers with a $9.3M, five-year grant from the National Cancer Institute.
Physics professor Robert Thorne's unique crystallization plate, which was developed and tested at the Cornell High Energy Synchrotron Source, was part of April's historic SpaceX launch.
Researchers have proposed a way to enhance the conductivity of two-dimensional covalent organic frameworks to power density levels comparable to other porous carbon-based electrodes.
The National Institutes of Health has awarded Cornell and UCSF researchers a four-year, $1 million grant to hone technology for in-the-field diagnosis of Kaposi's sarcoma – frequently related to HIV infections.
