Jonathan Lunine, an astrophysicist who studies the origin of life in exotic environments in space, comments on the discovery of the chemical compound phosphine in the atmosphere of Venus.
Cornell researchers have developed an optical neural network that can filter relevant information from a scene before the visual image is detected by a camera, a method that may make it possible to build faster, smaller and more energy-efficient image sensors.
A new study has changed where scientists think Nickelate's superconducting ability might originate, providing a blueprint for how more functional versions might be engineered in the future.
Current instrumentation being sent to Mars to collect and analyze evidence of ancient life on the red planet might not be sensitive enough to make accurate assessments, according to an international research team co-led by a Cornell astronomer.
Since 2015, the CHAMPS program has provided opportunities for high-caliber students from groups traditionally underrepresented in biomedical careers to engage in scholarship and research.
Physicist Kin Fai Mak has received a $1.25 million grant from the Moore Foundation Experimental Physics Investigators Initiative to further his research into electron behaviors by studying two-dimensional crystals.
Robert Langer ’70, whose pioneering work in biotechnology, drug delivery and tissue engineering has made him one of the most prolific inventors in medicine, received the Cornell Engineering Distinguished Alumni Award during a celebration hosted April 19.
