Launching Jan. 27 with three episodes, “Research Matters” spotlights Cornell scholars whose research directly engages with real-world challenges, from climate change and public safety to mental health.
In this week’s episode of Research Matters, Cornell professor Robert Shepherd explores a radically reimagined future of robotics – one built not from bolts and steel, but from living tissues, fungal networks and soft, 3D-printed materials.
Employees who are impressed by vague corporate-speak like “synergistic leadership,” or “growth-hacking paradigms” may struggle with practical decision-making, a new Cornell study into “corporate BS” reveals.
This week’s episode of Research Matters features misinformation expert Claire Wardle, discussing how today’s information ecosystem has become increasingly polluted by misleading and emotionally charged content that spreads faster than facts.
Matt Kibbee is honored for his work on training librarians in evidence synthesis, the art and science of gathering and combining results from multiple studies.
Researchers at Cornell University have developed a powerful new genetic toolkit that allows scientists to study how genes function at the level of individual cells, an advance that could accelerate discoveries in development, neuroscience and disease.
Cornell-led research linking poverty and disease – and a promising path out of both – faces an uncertain future as federal science funding comes under pressure.
A Cornell-led collaboration used high-resolution 3D imaging to detect, for the first time, the atomic-scale defects in computer chips that can sabotage their performance.
