To satisfy the seafood needs of billions of people, offering them access to a more biodiverse array of fish creates opportunities to mix-and-match species to obtain better nutrition from smaller portions of fish.
Three innovative approaches to treating infections, fighting cancer, and enhancing the body’s immune system have been selected for funding through the Cornell Center for Immunology's 2025 Multidisciplinary Seed Grants.
The winning proposal by Fernandez-Ruiz and his teammates was titled “Understanding the Neural Basis of Natural Behavior with Individualized artificial neural networks.”
For decades, researchers searched for a single “thermosensor”—a biological thermometer buried deep in the plant’s molecular machinery. But a new theory, led by Avilash Singh Yadav, postdoctoral associate at the Weill Institute for Cell and Molecular Biology and the Cornell College of Agriculture and Life Sciences, is flipping that idea on its head.
The Cornell Institute for Digital Agriculture has announced the recipients of its 2025 Research Innovation Fund faculty and student grants supporting new, cross-disciplinary projects designed to improve global food systems via digital innovation.
Flowers grow stems, leaves and petals in a perfect pattern again and again. A new Cornell study shows that even in this precise, patterned formation in plants, gene activity inside individual cells is far more chaotic than it appears.
