Selecting the most effective molecules for drug delivery can be a trial-and-error process, but Cornell engineers have developed a new technique that provides some precision.
Natalie Batalha, astrophysicist and planet hunter, will describe Kepler’s legacy and preview planned follow-up missions in the 2018 Carl Sagan Distinguished Lecture Dec. 5.
As methane concentrations increase in the Earth’s atmosphere, chemical fingerprints point to a probable source: shale oil and gas, according to new Cornell research published in Biogeosciences.
A rocky planet orbiting a white dwarf – a star in a phase after death – would present an excellent opportunity to search for molecules that signify life using the James Webb Space Telescope, Cornell researchers write in the Astrophysical Journal Letters.
The powerful new telescope being built for a high-elevation site in Chile by a consortium of U.S., German and Canadian academic institutions, led by Cornell, has a new name: the Fred Young Submillimeter Telescope.
There’s a structural avalanche waiting inside that box of Rice Krispies on the supermarket shelf. Cornell researchers are now closer to understanding how those structures behave – and in some cases, behave unusually.
Astronomers seeking life on distant planets may want to go for the glow. Harsh ultraviolet radiation flares from red suns, once thought to destroy surface life, might help uncover hidden biospheres.
Researchers successfully engineered E. coli bacteria to produce O-linked glycoproteins – research that will illuminate the complex process of glycosylation and the role that protein-linked glycans play in health and disease.
Dmitry Savransky, assistant professor of mechanical and aerospace engineering, is a co-investigator on a $2.6 million National Science Foundation grant aimed at the discovery of relatively young, large exoplanets.
A new technique that combines electricity and chemistry offers a way for pharmaceuticals to be manufactured in an easily scaled-up and sustainable way.
