Among those being recognized for exceptional teaching and mentorship this year are faculty members Begüm Adalet, Claudia Verhoeven, and Marcelo Aguiar.
The "premier telescope in space right now" will start a fourth annual cycle of observations on July 1, and three early-career astronomy researchers in A&S are PI or co-PI on observation programs chosen from a very competitive field.
An interdisciplinary team of researchers determined that organic residues of plant oils are poorly preserved in calcareous soils from the Mediterranean, leading decades of archaeologists to likely misidentify olive oil in ceramic artifacts.
TRAPPIST-1 e, an Earth-sized exoplanet 40 light years away, may have an atmosphere that could support having liquid water on the planet’s surface in the form of a global ocean or icy surface.
Cornell University hosted the 2025 SUPREME annual review, bringing together academia, industry, and government to advance next-generation semiconductor innovation and workforce development.
By combining the design principles and materials of soft robotics with microscale combustions, researchers created a high-resolution electronic tactile display that can operate in messy, unpredictable environments.
A Cornell-led collaboration developed microscale magnetic particles that can mimic the ability of biomolecules to self-assemble into complex structures, while also reducing the parasitic waste that would otherwise clog up production.
Cornell researchers have demonstrated that, by zapping a thin film with ultrafast pulses of low-frequency infrared light, they can cause its lattice to atomically expand and contract billions of times per second, potentially switching its electronic, magnetic or optical properties on and off.
Cornell researchers have identified the signaling mechanism that triggers steroid-induced glaucoma by creating a 3D “eye-on-a-chip” platform that mimics the flow of ocular fluids.
