Researchers in the College of Veterinary Medicine and colleagues have discovered that a protein complex that helps fight cancer cells also slows the growth of tuberculosis – a finding that could mean better treatments for both diseases.
This renewed funding will enable the Innovation Lab for Crop Improvement to strengthen its interdisciplinary efforts to support demand-driven, socially responsive crop improvement programs in key regions around the world.
Judy Cha, Ph.D. ’09, professor of materials science and engineering in Cornell Engineering, and Yuval Grossman, professor of physics in the College of Arts and Sciences, have been elected as fellows of the American Physical Society (APS).
For the first time, scientists have tracked the dispersion of the Oropouche virus in the Brazilian Amazon region, an important first step to control future outbreaks of a disease with more than 100,000 reported cases since the 1960s.
Weill Cornell Medicine researchers have discovered a mechanism that ovarian tumors use to cripple immune cells – blocking the energy supply T cells depend on. The work points toward a promising new immunotherapy approach for ovarian cancer.
Gallox Semiconductors, led by Jonathan McCandless, Ph.D. ’23, has been selected for the fourth cohort of the Breakthrough Energy Fellows, a group of entrepreneurs focusing on technology that reduce greenhouse gases.
A new system can accurately assess the chromosomal status of in vitro-fertilized embryos using only time-lapse video images of the embryos and maternal age, according to a study from investigators at Weill Cornell Medicine.
Investigators from Weill Cornell Medicine have discovered a defense mechanism that protects skin cancer cells from oxidative stress and helps them spread.
