Two new grants from the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society will support Weill Cornell Medicine’s pathbreaking research on the origins of lymphomas and on treatments that exploit these cancers’ biological vulnerabilities.
A new study from the Cornell Lab of Ornithology found which kind of nature experiences were associated with a greater sense of well-being during the COVID pandemic.
The anticipated renovation of The Foundry is underway with changes meant to create an expanded new Jack Squier Sculpture Studio and comfortable, accessible, state-of-the-art spaces for M.F.A. students.
Christopher K. Ober, professor of materials science and engineering, has been elected to the National Academy of Engineering, among the highest professional distinctions for an engineer.
MicroRNA (miRNA) molecules in pancreatic islets have been thought to play important roles in Type 2 diabetes, but until now scientists have not confidently identified which miRNAs are associated with the disease in humans.
The project, dubbed AUGER (Accelerating Use of Geologically-driven Engineering & Reclamation), was awarded $739K of funding from NSF’s Convergence Accelerator to support translational research combining x-ray and hyperspectral imaging capabilities at CHESS with remote sensing techniques to link macroscale data with microscale mineral properties to create predictive mining insights.
Surgery that removes only a portion of one of the five lobes that comprise a lung is as effective as the traditional surgery that removes an entire lobe for certain patients with early-stage lung cancer, a new study has found.
Since joining the NFL Players Association as its general counsel in 2010, Sean Sansiveri ’05 has been behind the NFL’s most important measures to make the game safer – including the protocol that helped save Buffalo safety Damar Hamlin’s life.
Understanding the physics behind this mysterious phase transition could lead to new complex microscopic circuits, superconductors and exotic insulators that could find use in quantum computing.
Dyson professor Suzanne Shu and colleagues found that considering one’s “future self” played a key role in how people decide when to start collecting monthly Social Security benefits. Societal norms regarding retirement, however, do not.
