Purdue University researchers have taken technology used in the defense and aerospace industries to create a novel way of doing some medical imaging.

A Purdue University team has received a $3.2 million grant from the National Institutes of Health for its work to treat antibiotic-resistant lower respiratory infections – the fourth-leading cause of death worldwide.

While at Silicon Valley’s premier chip-design conference, Purdue innovators unveiled technology that is 100 times more resilient to electromagnetic attacks to secure Internet of Things devices.

Surfactants applied to an oil spill attract microorganisms, due to complex hydrodynamics that were recently discovered by Purdue researchers.

Purdue innovators have developed a lanthanide-based assay coupled with a laser that can be used to detect toxins and pathogenic E. coli in food samples, water and a variety of industrial materials.

A pancreatic cancer “time machine” engineered by Purdue University researchers has revealed that the disease is even more unpredictable than previously thought: Cancer cells promote each other’s invasiveness when they grow together.

Ed Delp, Charles William Harrison Distinguished Professor of Electrical and Computer Engineering and director of the Video and Imaging Processing Laboratory at Purdue University, is researching new
ways to detect deepfake videos.

Researchers have found that a family history of alcoholism affects a process that the brain uses when transitioning from a mentally demanding state to
a resting state.

Researchers have discovered that a material shaped like a one-dimensional DNA helix might further push the limits on a transistor’s size. The material comes from a rare earth element called tellurium.

Purdue University scientists, led by Humaira Gowher, an associate professor in the Department of Biochemistry, have discovered the epigenetic process that keeps stem cell enhancers in active, primed or repressed states. In particular, her team has identified a protein-protein interaction that blocks proper formation of these states.
