Drug industry’s carbon impact could be cut by half

In a first-of-its-kind analysis, Cornell researchers and partners at the Clinton Health Access Initiative found that pharmaceutical producers could reduce their environmental impact by roughly half by optimizing manufacturing processes and supply chain networks and by switching to renewable energy sources. 

Ultrafast laser enhances material’s magnetism at high temperatures

Using a precisely tuned, ultrafast laser, a Cornell researcher showed that the atomic structure of yttrium titanate could be changed to stabilize its magnetism at temperatures three times higher than was previously possible.

Self-folding origami machines powered by chemical reaction

A Cornell-led collaboration harnessed chemical reactions to make microscale origami machines self-fold – freeing them from the liquids in which they usually function, so they can operate in dry environments and at room temperature.

Cornell Racing team excels in all-electric competition debut

Cornell Racing students made history after winning the 2023 Toyota Green Grand Prix, the first competition in the team’s more than three decades of racing that they drove an all-electric vehicle.

X-ray imaging captures fleeting defects in sodium-ion batteries

A Cornell-led collaboration succeeded in identifying an elusive mechanism that can trigger degradation in sodium-ion batteries.

Optical neural networks hold promise for image processing

Cornell researchers have developed an optical neural network that can filter relevant information from a scene before the visual image is detected by a camera, a method that may make it possible to build faster, smaller and more energy-efficient image sensors.
