A Cornell-led collaboration developed machine-learning models that use these cell-free molecular RNA dregs to diagnose pediatric inflammatory conditions that are difficult to differentiate. The diagnostic tool can accurately determine if a patient has Kawasaki disease (KD), Multisystem Inflammatory Syndrome in Children (MIS-C), a viral infection or a bacterial infection, while simultaneously monitoring the patient’s organ health.

Using a combination of machine learning and powerful X-rays, Cornell researchers have solved a mystery behind the unusual behavior seen in a class of materials with potential for thermoelectric energy conversion and other applications.
Study finds potential link between DNA markers and aging
Researchers have uncovered DNA markers associated with retroelements, remnants of ancient viral genetic material, in our genes that act as highly accurate epigenetic clocks predicting chronological age.
SoNIC puts students at cutting edge of computer vision research
Eighteen students from across the country got a crash course in computer vision, machine learning, and how to secure a research career in tech during the 2024 SoNIC Summer Research Workshop, held June 24-28 on Cornell’s Ithaca campus.
Rev: Ithaca Startup Works puts new entrepreneurs through their paces
Over 10 weeks this summer, Rev’s Prototyping Hardware Accelerator guided product teams from back-of-the-napkin ideas to fully-fledged startups. In categories from climate technology to agricultural innovations, and with projects that range from canoe racing tools to improved tea dispensers, teams gained access to experts in their industry’s field, working together to figure out if their concept might be commercially desirable, technologically feasible and economically viable.
Leading the Charge in Cybersecurity, Trust, and Safety
In an era where digital threats are ever-evolving, the need for advanced education and research in cybersecurity, trust, and safety is paramount. Cornell Tech’s new Security, Trust, and Safety (SETS) Initiative, a cutting-edge program aimed at revolutionizing these fields, aims to address these challenges head-on.
