A new technique developed in the lab of Juan Hinestroza from the College of Human Ecology could create waterproof coatings for clothes out of discarded textiles – far safer for humans and the environment than current coatings.
The event in the Duffield Atrium attracted over 500 attendees and brought science down to size, offering hands-on activities and live virtual tours that showcased the world of the very, very small.
Cornell researchers have demonstrated that acoustic sound waves can be used to control the motion of an electron as it orbits a lattice defect in a diamond, a technique that can potentially improve the sensitivity of quantum sensors and be used in other quantum devices.
Home to Cornell University Library’s Digital Scholarship Services, the Digital CoLab on the 7th floor of Olin Library stimulates innovation in research and teaching while building connections among scholars across campus. It follows one simple formula: “People over projects.”
The three-year postdoctoral fellowship, granted to Lígia Fonseca Coelho and Zach Ulibarri, provides recipients with resources, freedom, and flexibility to conduct theoretical, observational, and experimental research in planetary astronomy.
