The Big Red Adaptive Play and Design Initiative has brought independence and joy to local children with disabilities – and has created space for the engineering of assistive technologies at Cornell.
Cornell scientists have unearthed precise, microscopic clues to where magma is stored in Earth’s mantle, offering scientists – and government officials – a way to gauge volcanic eruption risk.
A synthetic biosensor that mimics properties found in cell membranes and provides an electronic readout of activity could lead to development of new drugs and the creation of sensory organs on a chip.
Cornell researchers constructed a simple model containing exotic particles called non-Abelian anyons, compact and practical enough to run on modern quantum hardware.
Can humans endure long-term living far from our home planet? Maybe, according to a new theory that describes the need for gravity, oxygen, obtaining water, developing agriculture and handling waste.
As world governments prepare the first-ever Global Stocktake, assessing whether they are living up to climate targets, Cornellians’ research is playing a critical role.
For day two of Chip Camp, Liverpool Central School District students came to the university to visit the Cornell NanoScale Science and Technology Facility for a crash course in the science of the very small.
After successfully launching small spacecraft out of a novel suborbital accelerator, Cornell Engineering faculty and students may have exciting new opportunities to expand research and exploration of ChipSats.
New Cornell research is providing a fresh view into the ways a common chemotherapy agent, etoposide, stalls and poisons the essential enzymes that allow cancer cells to flourish.
