Cornell engineers are adding their expertise in robot autonomy to the DARPA Robotics Challenge, a multi-year, international prize competition sponsored by the U.S. Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency.
Astronomy graduate students Andy Bohn, François Hébert and William Throwe contributed to the visualization of black holes in the new movie "Interstellar."
A gift from AOL to Cornell Tech will fund the creation of the Connected Experiences Laboratory, or ConnX, aimed at exploring new technologies at the forefront of the digital age.
When plants develop mutually beneficial relationships with animals, mainly insects, those plant families become more diverse (evolve into more species) over time, says a new study.
A person’s genes can shape the types of microbes that reside in the human gut independent of the environment a person lives in, according to a Cornell-led study.
A first clinical trial of ultrasmall, multifunctional particles called "C dots" (Cornell dots) has deemed them safe for humans and cleared easily by the body.
Scientists at the Cornell Laboratory for Accelerator-based Sciences and Education have been working for the last decade on research and development of an Energy Recovery Linac as a new X-ray light source. The research has led to the creation of a new particle accelerator, which offers a wide range of applications beyond the ERL.
Using a technique that illuminates subtle changes in individual proteins, chemistry researchers have uncovered new insight into the underlying causes of Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis.
