A simulator - with real, hovering spacecraft - would have allowed researchers, companies and government agencies to test crucial space technologies, but a stop-work order from the federal government has halted construction.
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.
Cornell researchers have captured an unprecedented, real-time view of how a promising catalyst material transforms during operation, providing new insights that could lead to replacement of expensive precious metals in clean-energy technologies.
Cornell researchers have developed a soft robotic device that gently grips and injects living plant leaves with sensors that help it detect and communicate with its environment. The robot can also inject genetic material into the leaves.
Cornell researchers are working to understand how robots can assist humans in dangerous and physically challenging environments, but the project, which is funded by the U.S. Department of Defense, has been halted by a stop-work order.
Nominations are solicited annually from all members of the academic community, the awards bestowed in recognition of the importance of undergraduate advising.
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.
As Cornell moves forward with a large-scale expansion of Duffield Hall, the directorship of the School of Electrical and Computer Engineering in Cornell Engineering has been named in honor of the late Ellis L. Phillips Sr., Class of 1895.
