Yangyang Cheng, a particle physicist and postdoctoral research associate at Cornell University, reflects on the legacy of Stephen Hawking and what his work meant to her personally.
Cornell researchers played a key role in an international collaboration that measured the magnetic field of the elusive subatomic particle known as the muon. Their findings provide strong evidence of an undiscovered type of fundamental physics.
Kesten is widely considered one of the most prolific and influential practitioners of probability theory, influencing engineering, computer science, ecology, economics and other fields.
Michelle Wang, professor of physics at Cornell University, and Steven Adie, professor of biomedical engineering at Cornell University, comment on how Nobel laureate Arthur Ashkin influenced their work.
A new solar collector array atop Guterman Research Center is one of several sustainability projects, from reusable dining serviceware to living laboratory experiments, that are continuing apace despite the many interruptions made by COVID-19 to campus life.
Ilana Brito, assistant professor of biomedical engineering, has been named a Pew Scholar in the Biomedical Sciences. Brito will receive a four-year, $300,000 grant to further her study of the human microbiome.
Published research by chemist Nozomi Ando, performed at CHESS, has identified a new vulnerability in bacteria that offers a possible avenue for dealing with antibiotic resistance.
Cornell’s newest science communications vehicle is “Modified,” a retrofitted, retro-vibe food truck that serves modified munchies with a side of biotechnology knowledge.
A new collaboration between the Cornell Atkinson Center for Sustainability and The Nature Conservancy this year will fund three studies that could be significant in the face of climate change.
Cornell’s Center for Data Science for Enterprise and Society, launching this fall and led by David Shmoys, will enhance research in the increasingly important field of data science.
