Cornell researchers discovered a way to bind and stack nanoscale clusters of copper molecules that can self-assemble and mimic complex biosystem structures at different length scales.
Cornell researchers have created a low-cost method for soft, deformable robots to detect a range of physical interactions, from pats to punches to hugs, without relying on touch at all.
Models developed by university experts predict that the combination of a highly vaccinated campus population and public safety measures, including masks and testing, will minimize the risk of virus spread this fall.
New Cornell-led research analyzes the notion of “swing” voters and develops a more general approach to identifying “pivotal components,” which are applicable to a wide range of systems.
The Office of Engagement Initiatives recently awarded Engaged Curriculum Grants to 19 teams of faculty and community partners that are developing community-engaged learning courses, majors and minors across the university.
Vijay Varma, a Klarman Postdoctoral Fellow in physics, is using his three-year appointment to research gravitational waves and their sources, which include black holes and neutron stars.
A new interdisciplinary research project is designed to unlock the power of wind energy by optimizing the spacing between wind turbines and wind turbine arrays to maximize power production.
