Cornell researchers have found that peaceful microbes are more likely to thrive, and their more aggressive peers perish, if their environment is harsh or experiences violent disruptions.
Cornell’s Steel Bridge Team excelled in the 2024 AISC competition with a 216-pound bridge that supported 2,500 pounds, placing first in lightness. Key to their success was access to the LASSP Student Machine Shop, where expert support and flexible hours enabled fast, high-quality fabrication and extra time for testing and refinement.
With support from Cornell’s research and testing facilities, deep-tech company AVS US – with facilities just outside Ithaca – successfully launched two spacecraft aboard a SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket on June 23
Phenomena common to Earth’s atmosphere can appear in the skies over some exoplanets of the “hot Jupiter” variety, a common type of gaseous giant that always orbits close to its host star, according to new research.
In a new study, researchers detail their novel approach for both detecting and controlling the motion of spins within antiferromagnets using 2D antiferromagnetic materials and tunnel junctions, which could lead to ultra-fast information transfer and communications at much higher frequencies.
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.
The Cornell NanoScale Science and Technology Facility has enabled scientists and engineers from academia and industry to conduct groundbreaking research, thanks to continuous support from the National Science Foundation. But that funding is now at risk.
CTI's 2024-2025 Innovative Teaching & Learning grant recipients focused on how students' thoughts are shaped and expanded upon through the agency of storytelling and the power of metacognitive assessment.
