The Institute for Geospatial Understanding through an Integrative Discovery Environment (known as I-GUIDE), based at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign, will help researchers better estimate and predict risk and anticipate impacts from natural disasters or climate change.

ME's Greg Shaver has been elected as a fellow of Society of Automotive Engineers (SAE), and Kejie Zhao has been elected as a fellow of American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME).

Purdue University, a national leader in microelectronics research and workforce development, will host a workshop to discuss challenges and opportunities related to the future of microelectronics and advanced packaging in the U.S.

Neurava is developing a wearable device to monitor and alert for the impending risk of sudden, unexpected death in epilepsy (SUDEP). Vivek Ganesh and Jay Shah, current and former Ph.D. candidates from Purdue University’s College of Engineering, launched the startup after a potential mechanism of action behind SUDEP was discovered in the lab of Pedro Irazoqui, the incoming head of electrical engineering at Johns Hopkins University and former associate head of biomedical engineering and founder of the Center for Implantable Devices at Purdue.

Purdue Engineers are collaborating with the Indiana University School of Medicine to convert medical imaging data of cerebral aneurysms into computational models that can help to predict the progression of an individual patient's aneurysm.

The effort is through Scalable Manufacturing of Aware & Responsive Thin Films Consortium that aims at making Internet of Things sensor technology affordable so it can be produced in bulk and deployed over large areas.

In collaboration with two universities, Purdue was awarded a Multidisciplinary University Research Initiative (MURI) award from the Department of Defense (DoD) to develop a fundamental understanding of topological systems incorporating plasma elements.

Purdue University and physIQ, a leader in digital medicine, co-developed a viral detection algorithm for smartwatches. The research was led by Craig Goergen, Purdue's Leslie A. Geddes Associate Professor of Biomedical Engineering.

Purdue's College of Agriculture and College of Engineering announced the launch of a new joint initiative to explore cellular agriculture and other alternative proteins as a possible solution to food insecurity in the U.S. and around the world.

The 2021 Anders Gustaf Ekeberg Tantalum Prize has been awarded to a U.S.-Japanese team led by Jason M. Davis (PhD IE’20), a mechanical engineer at Naval Surface Warfare Center-Crane Division for its paper “Cutting of tantalum: Why it is so difficult and what can be done about it,” published in the journal International Journal of Machine Tools and Manufacture.
