A novel compound, developed by College of Veterinary Medicine researchers, that has the potential to starve the bacteria that causes tuberculosis – the world’s second-leading infectious killer – is entering human clinical trials.
The Icefin team’s observations revealed more than a century of geological processes beneath the Ross Ice Shelf near where it meets Kamb Ice Stream, and will inform models of sea-level rise.
In the face of climate change, growing commercial crops under acres of solar panels is a potentially efficient use of agricultural land that can boost food production and improve panel longevity.
A simple model that simultaneously simulates swarming behaviors and synchronized timing takes a step toward engineering microrobots and furthering our understanding of such phenomena in biology.
Their analysis of James Webb Space Telescope data produced a serendipitous discovery: a previously hidden galaxy that seems to have hosted multiple generations of stars despite its young age, estimated at 1.4 billion years old.
Researchers studying statistics applications in systems biology and next-generation wireless technology are among the nine Cornell faculty members who’ve received National Science Foundation Faculty Early Career Development Awards.
Streets and neighborhoods that are friendlier to walkers and bikers increase physical activity but have limited benefit outside urban centers, Cornell research finds.
Disabling a single regulatory gene in a species of sea anemone caused a cell used for hunting and self-defense to completely shift its form and function, opening a door to better understanding evolutionary mechanisms, according to a new study.
