Researchers observed a mass of atoms cooled almost to absolute zero so that they could "tunnel" from place to place. But as long as the observation continued, no tunneling occurred.
Cornell researchers have engineered a tissue culture that mimics the complex environment of lymphomas – a technology that promises to rapidly advance our understanding and treatment of these tumors.
The research group of Jiwoong Park has developed a chiral thin film through rotational stacking of two-atoms-thick graphene sheets, the first such exploration of chirality at the nano scale.
Cornell engineers have created a synthetic immune organ that produces antibodies and can be controlled in the lab, completely separate from a living organism.
Four decades after NASA’s twin Voyager spacecraft launched from Cape Canaveral, about 800 Cornellians gathered at Bailey Hall Oct. 19 to celebrate the unprecedented mission, its famous Golden Record and the university’s role in the mission.
Jonathan Butcher and Ruth Ley have received Hartwell Individual Biomedical Research Awards, which provide a total of $300,000 over three years of direct research costs. (April 5, 2010)
A collaboration between Cornell and Ithaca's Kitchen Theatre Company has found a new way to make physics irresistible, with “Physics Fair,” an original musical theater production.
Using a technique known as magnetic tweezers, a group led by Peng Chen is the first to observe real-time polymer growth at the single-polymer level. The study, called "landmark" by one reviewer, achieved several firsts.
The Institute for the Social Sciences' Small Grants Program is funding a series of critical social science projects and a conference with its spring 2017 awards.
