Paper published in Harvard Journal of Law & Technology shows how technology blurs line between metadata and private content, eroding protections codified in pre-internet communications.
In a Nature Genetics article, researchers describe genotyping family members (rather than a patient), making it easier to collect DNA … Continue reading Study coauthored by Yaniv Erlich uses DNA from family members to map risk factors
Part of edX’s graduate-level MicroMasters series, the course gives everyone access to the same high level of AI instruction that Columbia’s on-campus students receive.
Fabricated in Columbia’s Computer Vision Lab, the camera—a sheet of adaptive lenses—bends to change the field of view. Thin and deformable, it can wrap around objects and still produce high-quality images.
Part 2 of Making computer science accessible to Columbia’s wider student population. Update: This article was originally posted December 2016. … Continue reading Women and computer science at Columbia

Technique models geometry of individual hair strands to predict how soft, curly hair will react to a character’s motions or the external forces of wind and water.
It describes how to coordinate communication among ultra-low power devices (e.g., Internet of things) that must operate under stringent power constraints to maximize throughput rates among these devices.
Part 1: Liberal arts students and computer science. The flow of liberal arts students into computer science is forcing changes … Continue reading Making computer science accessible to Columbia’s wider student population
