Investigators at Weill Cornell Medicine and Cornell’s Ithaca campus will use a $5.1 million grant from the NIH to launch the Autism Replication, Validation, and Reproducibility Center, which aims to improve the reliability of autism research.
The Weill Institute for Cell and Molecular Biology will bring together leading scientists from across the globe and across disciplines for its 8th Biennial Weill Institute Symposium, Oct. 13–14. The two-day program, taking place in Ithaca, NY., will showcase advances in molecular and cell biology research, while fostering opportunities for Cornell students and postdoctoral scholars to connect with internationally recognized leaders in the life sciences.
Researchers in the Virtual Embodiment Lab found that engagement in social virtual reality, whether with loved ones or total strangers, enhances pain tolerance.
After expanding to its peak size about 11 billion years from now, the universe will begin to contract – snapping back like a rubber band to a single point at the end, according to a Cornell physicist.
Using generative AI, fashion designers can use digital photos to adjust models’ features and even deploy fully digital avatars in place of humans. A team including an ILR School researcher has written a paper highlighting models’ challenges.
Cornell University has been awarded a portion of a $2 million planning initiative from the U.S. National Science Foundation to establish AI4Ag, a national testbed for artificial intelligence in agriculture.
Teams featuring at least one “stranger” – someone unknown by the team before its formation – are more than twice as likely to fail as teams of friends, family members or co-workers, a new study out of the Nolan Hotel School has revealed.
By combining the design principles and materials of soft robotics with microscale combustions, researchers created a high-resolution electronic tactile display that can operate in messy, unpredictable environments.
A Cornell researcher and collaborators have developed a machine-learning model that encapsulates and quantifies the valuable intuition of human experts in the quest to discover new quantum materials.
