Blockchain technology expert Ari Juels testified Jan. 20 before a Congressional subcommittee that digital currency – a notorious energy guzzler – can be validated in greener ways.
Summer Session, running May 31 through August 2, 2022, is open to Cornell and visiting undergraduate and graduate students, high school students and any interested adult. Undergraduates can earn up to 15 credits in on-campus, online, and off-campus courses before the fall semester.
Three of the four generations of Meinigs who have attended Cornell thus far were on hand to accept the award, which recognizes engineering alumni whose leadership and vision have transformed the world and brought distinction to the College of Engineering and Cornell.
Cornell physicist’s discovery could lead to the engineering of high-temp superconducting properties into materials useful for quantum computing, medical imaging.
Once a cosmic trickle a decade ago now appears as a rapid-fire barrage from across the universe, as 1,652 fast radio bursts were found in the Cornell-discovered FRB121102.
When Cornell’s COVID-19 Modeling Team began developing protocols for the return to campus, they turned to Cornell librarians to comprehensively answer a series of rapidly evolving – and critically important – questions.
Cornell researchers used advanced atomic modeling to explore the ways environment can influence the growth of cracks in alloys such as aluminum and steel – knowledge that could help engineers better predict, and possibly postpone, the failure of structures.
Cornell researchers and their collaborators will continue to advance quantum science and technology thanks to $5.4 million in new funding from the U.S. Department of Energy to support two projects.
The discovery made by two doctoral students could have future implications for human health, setting a path for research into understanding brain function.
