Weill Cornell Medicine faculty members were honored with awards for their exemplary achievements in medical research, education and care May 17-18 during Weill Cornell Medicine’s commencement activities.

Two highly similar molecules with essential, but often contrasting, signaling roles in most life forms exert their distinct effects through subtle differences in their bindings to their signaling partners.

The mechanism by which fat-related molecules called lipids regulate pacemaker ion channel proteins, which help control the heart rhythm, has been revealed in a study from researchers at Weill Cornell Medicine.

Dr. Gunisha Kaur, an assistant professor of anesthesiology at Weill Cornell Medicine and medical director of the Weill Cornell Center for Human Rights, has been selected as an Emerging Leaders in Health and Medicine (ELHM) Scholar by the National Academy of Medicine.

Six Weill Cornell Medicine postdoctoral associates, instructors and junior faculty seeking to pursue independent research careers have received 2022 JumpStart Career Development awards.

A three-year, million-dollar grant from the W.M. Keck Foundation will fund an ambitious project, led by Weill Cornell Medicine, to develop a next-generation, high-speed atomic-force microscope (AFM), capable of capturing the dynamics of proteins in unprecedented detail.

Using an innovative new imaging technique, researchers at Weill Cornell Medicine have revealed the inner workings of a family of light-sensing molecules in unprecedented detail and speed. 

Dr. Hugh C. Hemmings, senior associate dean for research and chair of the Department of Anesthesiology at Weill Cornell Medicine, has been elected to the National Academy of Medicine, one of the highest recognitions in health and medicine.

Researchers at Weill Cornell Medicine have shown that they can record the high-speed motions of proteins while correlating their motion to function.

Scientists at Weill Cornell Medicine have developed a computational technique that greatly increases the resolution of atomic force microscopy, a specialized type of microscope that “feels” the atoms at a surface.

Heartbeat rhythms may be regulated by a family of enzymes called prolyl isomerases, according to a study from scientists at Weill Cornell Medicine.

The modern concept of general anesthesia dates back to the 1840s, when doctors and dentists began giving patients ether before operations.

The Department of Anesthesiology Residency Program at Weill Cornell Medicine and NewYork-Presbyterian has been recognized as an Apple Distinguished Program for its success in creating a digital learning environment using mobile technology.
