With support from Cornell’s research and testing facilities, deep-tech company AVS US – with facilities just outside Ithaca – successfully launched two spacecraft aboard a SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket on June 23
Smolka, a biochemist and former interim director of the Weill Institute for Cell and Molecular Biology, will support life sciences across the university.
A Cornell Engineering team was on the cusp of significant progress developing an advanced laser useful for military and civilian applications, but a stop-work order prevented final experiments from proceeding.
Cornell chemistry and chemical biology researchers have found a new and potentially more accurate way to see what proteins are doing inside living cells — using the cells’ own components as built-in sensors.
NASA and the Indian Space Research Organization are launching a satellite that uses synthetic aperture radar – and Cornell expertise – to monitor nearly all the planet’s land- and ice-covered surfaces twice every 12 days.
Physicist Shahal Ilani will introduce the emerging field of twistronics, which is revolutionizing our ability to harness quantum phenomena, during a public lecture April 9.
Cornell Cinema will present a free screening of the documentary “The Accelerator” on April 8 at 6 p.m. Producer David Raubach will attend the screening and participate in a discussion following the film.
Cornell researchers in physics and engineering have created the smallest walking robot yet. Its mission: to be tiny enough to interact with waves of visible light and still move independently, so that it can maneuver, and take images and measurements.
Scientists have discovered a way to convert fluctuating lasers into remarkably stable beams that defy classical physics, opening new doors for photonic technologies that rely on both high power and high precision.
