Researchers discovered that DNA packaging structures called nucleosomes, which have been traditionally seen as roadblocks for gene expression, actually help reduce torsional stress in DNA strands and facilitate genetic information decoding.
The new method, Semi-Local Density Fingerprints (SLDFs), can predict molecular properties with up to 100 times more accuracy than the current most popular method for modeling molecules and materials.
José F. Martínez, the Lee Teng-hui Professor in the School of Electrical and Computer Engineering at Cornell, and Mor Naaman, the Don and Mibs Follett Professor of Information Science at Cornell Tech, the Jacobs Technion…
Contributions unveiled tools for analyzing environmental and health interventions, matching images to architectural plans, and generating realistic 3D scenes with unprecedented efficiency.
Researchers at Weill Cornell Medicine recently discovered that low levels of folate, a B vitamin essential for cell growth, can trigger specific genetic changes found in several human cancers, including lung tumors.
In a new book, Donald Campbell, Ph.D. ’71, professor emeritus of astronomy, recounts the history of Arecibo from construction to its last days under Cornell’s management in 2011.
An international research expedition involving Cornell has uncovered new details as to why a 2011 earthquake northeast of Japan behaved so unusually as it lifted the seafloor and produced a tsunami that devastated coastal communities.
Researchers in Cornell’s Matter of Tech Lab have developed CeraPiper, a fabrication system that creates customized sizes and shapes of ceramic pipes that can be fitted together and filled with water for environmentally friendly evaporative cooling.
Cornell’s NanoScale Science and Technology Facility (CNF) convened researchers, industry partners, and national collaborators for its 2025 Annual Meeting on November 18, highlighting advances across photonics, quantum devices, semiconductor fabrication, sustainability, and life sciences.
REEgen, a Cornell spinout focused on rare earth element (REE) recovery, won the $150,000 grand prize at the 2025 FuzeHub Commercialization Competition, held at the New York State Innovation Summit on Oct. 29-30.
