A Purdue Biomedical Engineering professor has won a prestigious Moore Inventor Fellowship.

The College of Engineering would like to congratulate the following faculty, lecturers and other staff for their outstanding dedication to teaching Boilermaker Engineers!

Four engineers among six Purdue researchers who received a total of $208,628 from the Trask Innovation Fund to help their labs commercialize their innovations.

How do we control a cell to harness its full therapeutic and medical potential? The answer lies where engineering and biology meet.

The way the novel coronavirus tore through the U.S. healthcare system and threatened to overwhelm it in places has brought into sharp relief the need to apply data-driven analytics and optimization in order to hone healthcare practices and service delivery for the next wave of challenges.

The College of Engineering will add three additional names to the list of highly accomplished faculty members who are fellows of the American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS).

More than a dozen mid- and early career faculty members have been chosen to receive funding from the Ralph W. and Grace M. Showalter Research Trust Fund. Two Engineering faculty are included: Xiaoping Bao, assistant professor, Davidson School of Chemical Engineering; and Maria Dadarlat Makin, assistant professor, Weldon School of Biomedical Engineering.

People recovered from the most severe cases may face new long-term health challenges. BME’s Hyowon (Hugh) Lee and other researchers are diligently working to reduce these cardiovascular and neurological aftereffects.

Purdue BME’s Y.L. Kim is using pearls to provide potential new opportunities for spectral information processing that can be applied to spectroscopy in biomedical and military applications. His team demonstrated light transport-assisted information processing by creating a pearl spectrometer.

Up to 22% of soccer injuries are concussions that can result from players using their heads to direct the ball during a game. To reduce risk of injury, a new study by Purdue ME/BME’s Eric Nauman recommends preventing how hard a ball hits the head by inflating balls to lower pressures and subbing them out when they get wet.
