Since the early days of modern cosmic exploration, Cornell scientists have led the way, from guiding rovers through the red dust of Mars to searching for other life in the universe; and from modeling exotic stars to detecting the faint ripples of gravitational waves.
Cornell University researchers Héctor D. Abruña and David Muller developed a nickel‑carbon catalyst that delivers high hydrogen oxidation performance in alkaline fuel cells, surpassing U.S. DOE power density targets. Published in PNAS, this breakthrough demonstrates a durable, low‑cost, precious‑metal‑free path to scalable clean‑energy fuel cell technology.

Cornell researchers have uncovered a new strategy milkweed uses to fight monarchs: upgrading the structure of its toxins.
Milkweed evolves upgraded toxins to defeat monarch resistance, a Cornell University study finds, by adding a small structural element containing nitrogen and sulfur. Chemistry researchers from the College of Arts and Sciences helped model how the upgraded toxins bind to enzymes in the monarch’s cells.
