Researchers at @CornellEng found that while the smoother, quieter ride of an electric bus was appealing to those who already rode public transportation, those advantages weren’t enough to lure drivers away from their cars. @Sciencedirect@CEECornell https://t.co/oyc5G7Qd24
Every winter, @CornellBME and @CornellEng students spend two weeks in @WeillCornell operating rooms where they turn clinician challenges into engineering solutions. Watch this (https://t.co/23wCSOAx7O) featuring @BonassarLab members Alex Griffin and Molly Matri, to learn more!
A year after unveiling a “microwave brain” microchip capable of computing on ultrafast data and wireless signals, @CornellEng researchers have shown how the chip can encode information into its own language. @NatureComms@CornellECE@CornellGrad https://t.co/WvWmKRwDX7
As psychedelic drugs gain more support from the medical community as a potential treatment for severe depression – and with the U.S. government relaxing its regulatory constraints – there remains a vast gap in understanding how the drugs work on the brain. Alex Kwan, Ph.D. ’09, professor of biomedical engineering in @CornellEng, is at the center of a multidisciplinary investigation that is exploring the basic neurobiology and mechanics behind psychedelic compounds such as psilocybin.

“In my view, the data and transparency [are] the hardest part. If you get the data, we are very good at using data to make decisions. But if the data are not comprehensive enough or even somehow misleading, there could be a challenge.” - says Fengqi You (@CornellEng) in @sciam
Researchers from @CornellEng developed a potential replacement for the tiny copper interconnects in microchips: single-crystal nanowires that become better conductors the thinner they get.

A new course this fall explores how engineering design can better address women’s health. Students will examine clinical challenges, device design and opportunities for innovation. https://t.co/DVQQ3HMrOw
One month until a new class of Cornellians makes their own odyssey to Ithaca.
Different from Odysseus's Ithaca — Cayuga Lake instead of the Ionian Sea — but the same promise at the end of the road: they're arriving somewhere that's about to become home.

Autonomous drones could deliver packages, inspect bridges and skyscrapers, monitor emergencies like wildfires, and, eventually, ferry people. But the airspace still lacks the testing and coordination infrastructure needed to prove drones can operate safely around people, buildings, aircraft, and each other.
Mehrnaz Sabet, a doctoral student in the field of information science in @Cornell_Bowers, is working to create that infrastructure. Learn how at https://t.co/zNjPfkIyjN.
