'Cornell Dots' may not only help light up cancer cells, but could provide a new patient-friendly, viable option to battle cancer. Researchers have created pores in the nanoparticles that can carry medicine.
If you want to see the future of technology, look at what today's students are inventing. An array of examples was on display April 3 at the annual BOOM (Bits on Our Minds) exhibition in the Duffield Atrium.
A $100 million federal research initiative aimed at revolutionizing understanding of the human brain received key scientific direction from researchers at Cornell’s Kavli Institute for Nanoscale Science.
NASA's Kepler space telescope, in concert with Cornell-led measurements of stars' ultraviolet activity, has observed the effects of a dead star bending the light of its companion red star.
Cornell physicists can now control with precision how the particles in viscous liquids swirl, twirl and whirl. Think of adding cream to coffee - and managing the cream stream.
Researchers have uncovered cellular-level detail of what happens when bone bears repetitive stress over time, visualizing damage at smaller scales than previously observed.
Professor Gordon Baym, Cornell's 2013 Hans Bethe lecturer, will discuss the terrestrial experiments that explore extremes of matter in his public lecture March 27.
