Gallox Semiconductors, a startup with Cornell Roots, won the 2025 Hello Tomorrow Global Challenge in the Advanced Computing & Electronics category. A member of the Praxis Center for Venture Development, Gallox is one of several semiconductor startups launched at Cornell.
A primary research focus for the new lab is understanding how young people develop a sense of purpose, and how it impacts their everyday experiences and contributes to their long-term development.
Cornell scientists launched aluminum particles, each about 20 micrometers in diameter, onto an aluminum surface at speeds of up to 1,337 meters per second – well beyond the speed of sound – and used high-speed cameras to record the impacts.
The research upends the long-standing belief is that active volcanoes have large magma bodies that are expelled during eruptions and then dissipate over time.
The third cohort of Eric and Wendy Schmidt AI in Science Postdoctoral Fellows from Cornell will tackle critical scientific challenges in sustainability, the physical sciences and more.
Using advanced technology that analyzes tiny gas bubbles trapped in crystal, a team of scientists led by Cornell has precisely mapped how magma storage evolves as Hawaiian volcanoes age.
Sixty-three graduate students completed international fieldwork last summer with the support of research travel grants from the Mario Einaudi Center for International Studies. Applications are open until March 7 for graduate students seeking support for summer 2025.
