The celebration also features a welcome speech at 12:15 p.m. by Elaine L. Westbrooks, Carl A. Kroch University Librarian, and open houses for the new Anthropology Collaboratory and Library Map Collection.
The Cornell NanoScale Science and Technology Facility has launched a free VR youth outreach module, designed to prepare the next generation of students in cutting-edge microchip fabrication.
Using Ithaca as a case study, researchers have demonstrated a software tool that can quickly model building energy use and simulate the most cost-effective strategies for improving efficiency and reducing emissions.
Cornell Engineering researchers have developed a low-power microchip they call a “microwave brain,” the first processor to compute on both ultrafast data signals and wireless communication signals by harnessing the physics of microwaves.
Researchers developed machine-learning models that can sift through cell-free RNA and identify key biomarkers for chronic fatigue syndrome, a debilitating disease that is difficult to confirm in patients because its symptoms can be easily confused with those of other illnesses.
As the need to find climate change solutions becomes ever more urgent, Cornell chemists are leading the way with innovative and far-reaching discoveries, including better electric batteries, carbon capture technologies, renewable plastics and improvements in solar cells.
Three new research projects will receive funding and training through the Ignite Fellow for New Ventures program to transform university research into new ventures and products that can benefit society.
The Einhorn Center for Community Engagement awarded nine grants to a diverse array of projects that connect classroom learning with community partners.
Semida Silveira, professor of practice in systems engineering, was among the senior representatives at the Global Green Industrialization Dialogue 2025, held July 7–8 in Vienna, Austria, under the auspices of the United Nations Industrial Development Organization.
