Cornell researchers are helping upgrade the CMS detector at CERN, as LHC collaborations win the 2024 Breakthrough Prize for fundamental physics discoveries.
In recognition of his transformative leadership in nanomanufacturing technology, James C. Morgan ’60, MBA ’63, was presented with the Cornell Engineering Distinguished Alumni Award – the college’s highest alumni honor.
Cornell researchers developed a new way to safely heat up specific areas inside the body by using biodegradable polymers that contain tiny water pockets, a technology that could lead to precise and noninvasive diagnostics and therapeutics.
By finding the atomic equivalent of a perfect handshake between two types of perovskite, researchers at Cornell have built solar cells that are not only high-performing, but exceptionally durable.
Greeshma Gadikota, director of the Sustainable Energy and Resource Recovery Group at Cornell University’s College of Engineering, comments on the discovery of lithium reserves in Arkansas and the role of emergent tech in sustainably extracting the element.
Students can win up to $1,500 for projects that combine art and technology in the inaugural Art + Tech exhibit hosted by The Milstein Program in Technology and Humanity.
Cornell Engineering is rapidly becoming a leader in engineering education research, a field dedicated to designing effective education systems and learning experiences for students. The insights emerging from this work have the potential to redefine engineering education on campus and far outside it.
Cornell researchers created a machine learning-based model that can forecast, with greater accuracy than current methods, the impact severe wildfire conditions will have on solar electricity generation.
