Edward Delp, director of the Video and Imaging Processing Laboratory at Purdue University, says deepfakes are a growing danger with the next presidential election fast approaching.

A new study reports that children ages 2-17 who drink sweetened beverages, including diet and regular sodas, have higher sugar and calorie intake than children who consume unsweetened alternatives, like milk or water.

A new approach to breast cancer may prevent cancer from reappearing years later. A research team led by scientists at Purdue University have identified a drug the doesn’t kill the metastatic cancer cells, but instead keeps them in a non-threatening early developmental state in a technique the researchers call “lock-‘n’-block.”

Researchers at various Microsoft Quantum lab sites, including the lab of Michael Manfra at Purdue University, collaborated to create a device that could bring more scalable quantum bits.

The Resilient ExtraTerrestrial Habitats Institute (RETH) is working to ensure that the first long-term settlement on other planetary bodies are safe from hazards such as a meteoroid colliding with the moon or violent sandstorms on Mars.

New brain-like networks could help robots approach human-like efficiency at object recognition tasks. Purdue University researchers have developed a process to use magnetics with brain-like networks to program and teach devices such as personal robots, self-driving cars and drones to better generalize about different objects.

A study led by Professor Laurent Couëtil found that 80 percent of thoroughbred racehorses surveyed had mild or moderate asthma. Couëtil, who is also a professor of large animal internal medicine in Purdue’s College of Veterinary Medicine, has spent much of his career treating and researching equine respiratory disease.

A Purdue University researcher has come up with a patented design for drones, or unmanned aerial vehicles, that works in windy conditions, is more energy-efficient and can handle a larger payload. The was inspired by the wings and flight patterns of insects.

Six major life science entities – Purdue University, Indiana University School of Medicine, Indiana University Bloomington, the University of Illinois-Champaign, Eli Lilly and Company, and the Indiana Biosciences Research Institute – have pooled their resources together to purchase the latest version of the nearly $9 million machine.

Purdue University researchers have developed a model to help meet the medical and financial needs of families in the rural parts of Kenya.
