The Meshri Family Auditorium opened this fall, after a $6 million renovation project that included gutting the space – which was last renovated in the 1970s — and installing new heating, cooling, windows, desks and chairs, as well as technology and electrical improvements.
Crevasses play an important role in circulating seawater beneath Antarctic ice shelves, potentially influencing their stability, finds Cornell-led research based on first-of-its-kind exploration by an underwater robot.
Researchers developed a method to efficiently engineer intricate nanostructures through a form of phase separation – a process akin to the way water and oil uncouple in salad dressing.
When wildfires draped smoke over New York this summer, nearly half of its counties lacked data on air quality. Cornell has led an effort to install sensors in places where there were none.
Cornell researchers have harnessed the power of baker’s yeast to create a cost-effective and highly efficient approach for unraveling how plants synthesize medicinal compounds, and they have used the new method to identify key enzymes in a kratom tree.
Researchers using NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope have detected evidence for quartz nanocrystals in the high-altitude clouds of a hot Jupiter exoplanet 1,300 light-years from Earth.
The annual competition, slated for Nov. 10-13, allows students to work on open-ended real world problems, showcasing the multifaceted nature of applied mathematics.
