Light typically interacts with a material the same way whether it enters through the front or the back. Cornell researchers have demonstrated a simple route to breaking that symmetry, with possibilities for photonics and quantum information processing.
As psychedelic drugs gain more support from the medical community as a potential treatment for severe depression, Cornell researchers are making crucial discoveries that explain how compounds such as psilocybin work on the brain.
A new Cornell study shows how drivers of water shortage, from melting snowpack to growing population demands, may impact Colorado’s West Slope River basins and Lake Powell – a major source of energy and water supply for 40 million people.
Researchers from around the world gathered at Cornell Tech for a workshop exploring how physics-aware artificial intelligence can accelerate the discovery of molecules and materials while improving the reliability of machine learning models.
Researchers developed a potential replacement for the tiny copper interconnects in microchips: single-crystal nanowires that become better conductors the thinner they get.
A new Duffield Engineering biomedical engineering course will challenge students to investigate real-world failures in women’s health technologies and identify opportunities for better design.
Marx will establish and serve as inaugural director of the Cornell Center for Entrepreneurship and Innovation, to boost university efforts to commercialize breakthrough scientific discoveries.
