Krystyn J. Van Vliet, currently associate provost and associate vice president for research at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, will join Cornell in 2023 as vice president for research and innovation.
Supported by a National Science Foundation grant, Keith Evan Green, director of the Architectural Robotics Lab, is advancing a new category of robots that people will inhabit.
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.
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.
Researchers studying carbon removal and storage methods and novel additive manufacturing techniques are among the six Cornell faculty members who recently received National Science Foundation Faculty Early Career Development Awards.
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.
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 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.
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 physicist’s discovery could lead to the engineering of high-temp superconducting properties into materials useful for quantum computing, medical imaging.
