Cornell researchers have discovered a pathway by which E. coli regulates zinc levels, an insight that could advance the understanding of metal regulation in bacteria and lead to antibacterial applications such as in medical instruments.
A girl who attends a school with classmates whose mothers work is more likely to be in the workforce when she has a child herself than a girl who grows up in local circles where most mothers stay at home, Cornell researchers have found.
Cornell researchers in physics and engineering have created the smallest walking robot yet. Its mission: to be tiny enough to interact with waves of visible light and still move independently, so that it can maneuver, and take images and measurements.
A new study by Cornell information science researchers finds that ignoring race in college admissions leads to an admitted class that is much less diverse, but with similar academic credentials to those where affirmative action is factored in.
The Information and Decision Science Laboratory is designing a better – and safer – future for transportation with the help of a 20-by-20-foot “smart” scaled city and a fleet of motorized cars, drones and virtual reality technology.
A research team led by Larissa Shepherd, M.S. ’13, Ph.D. ’17, assistant professor in the College of Human Ecology, has developed an elegant and sustainable way to clean up waterways: reusing one waste product to remove another.
Cornell scientists are developing a library of basalt-based spectral signatures that not only will help reveal the composition of planets outside of our solar system, but also could demonstrate evidence of water on those exoplanets.
Five Johnson School MBA students designed the case, organized the judging and facilitated the Emerging Markets Institute’s Corning Case Competition, “Powering Vietnam’s Future: The Rise of Electric Vehicles,” which attracted a record number of entrants.
