A tiny eukaryotic organism provided inspiration for modeling “traveling networks” – connected systems that move by rearranging their structure. Understanding these networks may help explain the behavior of certain biological systems and human organizations.
Judy Cha, Ph.D. ’09, professor of materials science and engineering in Cornell Engineering, and Yuval Grossman, professor of physics in the College of Arts and Sciences, have been elected as fellows of the American Physical Society (APS).
The project aligns with Cornell Atkinson's core mission of supporting research that drives meaningful impact across public opinion, policy, and corporate practices.
A Cornell-led research team has developed a method for extracting gold from electronics waste, then using the recovered precious metal as a catalyst for converting carbon dioxide, a greenhouse gas, to organic materials.
Cornell researchers have discovered a pathway by which E. coli regulates zinc levels, an insight that could advance the understanding of metal regulation in bacteria and lead to antibacterial applications such as in medical instruments.
The Brooks Tech Policy Institute has received $3 million from the Department of Defense to establish the U.S. Semiconductor Research Hub, which will assess and improve the resilience of the global network of semiconductor infrastructure.
Beate Heinemann, professor at Universität Hamburg and director for particle physics at DESY in Germany, will share the stories of two outstanding women scientists in a public lecture.
Cornell researchers have discovered a way for ammonia oxidizing archaea, one of the most abundant types of microorganisms on Earth, to produce nitrous oxide, a potent and long-lasting greenhouse gas.
A Cornell-led collaboration uncovered the equipment that enables bacteria to survive exposure to antibiotics: a shuttling mechanism that helps a complex of proteins pump out a wide spectrum of antibiotics from the cell.
