Cornell’s Steel Bridge Team excelled in the 2024 AISC competition with a 216-pound bridge that supported 2,500 pounds, placing first in lightness. Key to their success was access to the LASSP Student Machine Shop, where expert support and flexible hours enabled fast, high-quality fabrication and extra time for testing and refinement.
In a new study, researchers detail their novel approach for both detecting and controlling the motion of spins within antiferromagnets using 2D antiferromagnetic materials and tunnel junctions, which could lead to ultra-fast information transfer and communications at much higher frequencies.
Cornell researchers have been building decision-support tools, optimization methods and artificial intelligence approaches to help the U.S. Navy and Marines quickly and effectively transport people and supplies – including blood for transfusions – in the event of an overseas conflict or humanitarian disaster.
Cornell chemistry and chemical biology researchers have found a new and potentially more accurate way to see what proteins are doing inside living cells — using the cells’ own components as built-in sensors.
With support from Cornell’s research and testing facilities, deep-tech company AVS US – with facilities just outside Ithaca – successfully launched two spacecraft aboard a SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket on June 23
The "premier telescope in space right now" will start a fourth annual cycle of observations on July 1, and three early-career astronomy researchers in A&S are PI or co-PI on observation programs chosen from a very competitive field.
A Cornell research team has employed a variation of a theory first used to predict the collective actions of electrons in quantum mechanical systems to a much taller, human system – the National Basketball Association.
