6th Celebration of Statistics and Data Science scheduled for September 8

The day-long event will feature talks from seven field scholars, including this year’s recipient of the Distinguished Alumni award, Karen Bandeen-Roche, chair of the Department of Biostatistics at the Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health.

Floating an energy idea: Scientists study solar panel-topped ponds

Steve Grodsky, assistant professor of natural resources, and a multidisciplinary team of researchers, soon will learn how solar panels placed on top of water bodies can affect the biology of aquatic systems.

Current takes a surprising path in quantum material

Cornell researchers used magnetic imaging to obtain the first direct visualization of how electrons flow in quantum anomalous Hall insulators, and by doing so they discovered the transport current moves through the interior of the material.

Imaging shows how solar-powered microbes turn CO2 into bioplastic

Cornell researchers developed a multimodal platform to image microbe-semiconductor biohybrids with single-cell resolution, to better understand how they can be optimized for more efficient energy conversion.

Q&A: What you need to know about reflecting sunlight to cool Earth

As concerns about climate change intensify, researchers are exploring the potential for large-scale human intervention in the Earth’s climate system, a strategy sometimes referred to as geoengineering. Two leading researchers in the area discuss how their research in sunlight reflection methods fits into the bigger picture of potential climate solutions.

Interdisciplinary group creating biolubricants to combat arthritis

An interdisciplinary research team received a five-year, $2 million grant from the National Science Foundation to develop a new generation of biosynthetic lubricants that have the potential to treat arthritis and reduce the painful friction of artificial joints.
