Cornell researchers discovered a strategy to switch the magnetization in thin layers of a ferromagnet – a technique that could eventually lead to the development of more energy-efficient magnetic memory devices.
Héctor D. Abruña has been honored by the American Chemical Society with the ACS National Award in Analytical Chemistry for his pioneering work in electrochemistry, including the development of fuel cell and battery materials.
Three New York state companies have been chosen to participate in the Cornell Center for Materials Research JumpStart Program, through which they will collaborate with faculty members to develop and improve their products.
During the past year, students and faculty at Cornell and North Carolina Agricultural and Technical State University have been partnering on a research project built around two shared goals: increasing diversity in the field of materials science and transforming the way the world generates and stores energy.
Esteban Gazel, an expert on the processes inside the Earth that produce magma and volcanoes, comments on threats posed by volcanoes such as Taal in the Philippines.
Active learning in Mechatronics (MAE 3780) gives students hands-on experience applying concepts and theory to solve real-world problems. Students learn as they collaborate to build robots for a competition at the end of the term.
Applications are being accepted through Oct. 15 for the second cohort of the Klarman Postdoctoral Fellowship program, in the College of Arts and Sciences.
Eleven 2030 Project grants were awarded to Cornell faculty for an array of fast-track climate solutions, including tools to help New York communities reduce their greenhouse gas emissions.
Cornell has been awarded a $15 million, five-year grant from the National Science Foundation to lead a newly established Innovation Corps Hub that will support science and technology entrepreneurship in rural regions.
