Imagine being able to turn bad fat into good fat inside your own body without exercising, but rather a simple injection.
That’s the goal of technology from a Purdue University-based startup.
Purdue University research experts will discuss their giant leaps in cancer research, including early detection and response to treatments, at the Purdue event of the Sept. 21 Biden Cancer Community Summit.
This is a nationwide initiative in which campuses, hospitals and community organizers host events on the same day to show the progress they are making in cancer research.
Just a few minutes of warning during a natural disaster can mean the difference between life and death.
Imagine being stuck underneath rubble after a hurricane slams landward, knocking out the emergency phone lines. What if social media could save your life? What if an online platform gave you a more accurate, detailed route of a hurricane?
The explosions of supernovae can be so bright they outshine their host galaxies. They take months or years to fade away, and sometimes, the gaseous remains of the explosion slam into hydrogen-rich gas and temporarily get bright again – but could they remain luminous without any outside interference?
What if a parent could feel safe allowing a drone to walk their child to the bus stop? Could robots work without human intervention?
New research at Purdue’s Center for Brain-inspired Computing Enabling Autonomous Intelligence, or C-BRIC, could direct drones and other robotic devices and machines to do even more through advanced artificial intelligence.
Purdue University researchers have developed a unique, toxin-free adhesive system developed from underwater creatures. They hope it will make plywood, cardboard boxes and other packaging – combined $100 billion industries – both safer and easier to use.
Purdue University researchers have developed a unique approach using augmented reality tools to help less-experienced surgeons and physicians in war zones, natural disasters and in rural areas perform complicated procedures.
Companies and governments have regularly invested in solar farms and lost money when weather degradation unexpectedly cut panel lifetime short.
Purdue researchers created an algorithm using the physics of panel degradation that can analyze solar farm data from anywhere, essentially as a portable EKG for solar farms.
A startup is using Purdue University-patented technology to produce precise, customized medicine for pets. Pinpoint Pharma is a precision compounding pharmacy for veterinarians, ensuring that the medicine tailored to each individual animal’s needs is easier for pet owners to give and for pets to take, which optimizes clinical outcomes.
Purdue University researchers have devised a way to use 3D printers to ensure that medical imaging techniques offer offer the best performance. The researchers developed a method to use 3D printers to create optical phantoms, which are objects that are scanned or imaged to evaluate, analyze and tune the performance of imaging devices. The phantoms could be adapted for many imaging techniques.
