Strogatz has been busy with outreach activities as the inaugural Susan and Barton Winokur Distinguished Professor for the Public Understanding of Science and Mathematics.
Gallox Semiconductors, a startup with Cornell Roots, won the 2025 Hello Tomorrow Global Challenge in the Advanced Computing & Electronics category. A member of the Praxis Center for Venture Development, Gallox is one of several semiconductor startups launched at Cornell.
Cornell researchers developed a new way to safely heat up specific areas inside the body by using biodegradable polymers that contain tiny water pockets, a technology that could lead to precise and noninvasive diagnostics and therapeutics.
Cornell geochemists and synthetic biologists have collaborated to improve the efficiency of microbes that can dissolve rocks to extract critical minerals while speeding carbon sequestration from air.
An international collaboration that includes Cornell researchers achieved a new level of precision in measuring the magnetic anomaly of the muon – a tiny, elusive particle that could have very big implications for understanding the subatomic world.
A new material developed at Cornell could significantly improve the delivery and effectiveness of mRNA vaccines – used to fight COVID-19 – by replacing a commonly used ingredient that may trigger unwanted immune responses in some people.
In collaboration with Tompkins Consolidated Area Transit, researchers found that a pilot fleet of seven electric buses consumed up to 48% more energy in cold weather.
Scientists have discovered a way to convert fluctuating lasers into remarkably stable beams that defy classical physics, opening new doors for photonic technologies that rely on both high power and high precision.
