Cornell researchers and Kenyan partners have developed a fertilizer made from human excreta. The product improves soil health and food production, while preventing pollution in informal settlements and the aquatic environment.
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.
Switching to the oral small molecule glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) orforglipron after taking injectable GLP-1s helped patients maintain most of their weight loss, a clinical trial involving Weill Cornell Medicine has found.
A new study finds that grape pomace – the skins, seeds and stems left over from winemaking – may match the growth-promoting effects of antibiotic additives in broiler chickens, without the public health risks.
Researchers found entropy can help bind certain pairs of molecules faster and more robustly – an approach that could have broad applications in drug development and forming new materials.
