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 have been building decision-support tools, optimization methods and artificial intelligence approaches to help the U.S. Navy and Marines quickly and effectively transport people and supplies – including blood for transfusions – in the event of an overseas conflict or humanitarian disaster.
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.
Charles “Chuck” Benjamin Wharton, professor emeritus of electrical engineering and a distinguished expert in plasma physics, died April 12 in Ithaca, New York. He was 99.
The Center for Teaching Innovation published two series of adaptable case studies, from the Creative Teaching Awards and Provost’s Working Group for Innovation in Assessment, showcasing new Cornell faculty approaches to assessing student learning.
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.
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.
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.
