Mark Lewis – PARI Year In Review Introduction
Welcome to PARI 2024, The Year in Review. This collection of articles and highlights from this year underscores the impressive, vast array of research taking place at the Purdue Applied Research Institute (PARI). And the recognition in various news outlets throughout the year is a testament to our ever-growing scope and impact.
