Cornell researchers studying microplastics, robotics and machine learning are recent recipients of National Science Foundation Faculty Early Career Development Awards.
The four-day event, co-sponsored by the Cornell Lab of Ornithology, is expected to attract nearly 1 million participants this year, providing a global snapshot just before migration.
Five Cornell faculty members are among 126 early-career researchers across North America who have won 2026 Sloan Research Fellowships from the Alfred P. Sloan Foundation.
Contributions unveiled tools for analyzing environmental and health interventions, matching images to architectural plans, and generating realistic 3D scenes with unprecedented efficiency.
