Cornell researchers have discovered that when melanocyte stem cells accumulate a sufficient number of genetic mutations, they can become the cells where melanomas originate.
Cornell will lead a project to study how controlled-environment agriculture compares to conventional field agriculture, thanks to a three-year, $2.4 million grant from the National Science Foundation.
A four-year, $2.5 million National Science Foundation grant will take 3-D digital scans of 20,000 museum vertebrate specimens and make them available to everyone online.
