Researchers develop new design rule for generating excitons will help advance next-generation devices

A Columbia University study suggests residents not return to several uninhabited islands until areas are thoroughly cleaned and further assessed for safety

Scientists have uncovered an ingenious mechanism that underlies the brain’s ability to distinguish different smells

Spam-filtering algorithm learns to recognize full set of behaviors in jelly-like Hydra

Columbia biomedical engineers design a new, biomaterials-based system that takes a soft approach to improving cell manufacturing and may bring new hope to cancer patients for T-cell therapy

New technique allows researchers to fabricate and measure thousands of junctions with reproducible transport characteristics

Until now, little was known about the prevalence of food allergy in low socioeconomic ethnic minority populations

Columbia Engineering technique could lead to stronger composite materials used in commercial products, opening the way for their use in structural applications

Columbia engineers find strong feedbacks between the atmosphere and vegetation that explain up to 30% of precipitation and surface radiation variance; study reveals large potential for improving seasonal weather predictions

The innovative technique allows for the imaging of up to 24 biomolecular structures at a time instead of being limited by only five fluorescent proteins

“By knowing how this distribution changes seasonally, we can better understand the spatial linkage between ice and water flow," researcher explains
