We would like share several important announcements regarding the finance and business team that supports the Office of the Executive Vice President for Research and Partnerships (OEVPRP).

As a post-doctoral researcher in Professor Jason Canon’s lab at Purdue, Dr. Shreesh Sammi has been looking into the neurotoxicity of forever chemicals known as PFAS.

Center affiliate and assistant professor of Political Science and Civil Engineering David Yu is a Co-PI on a team from Virginia Tech University that was recently awarded $1.6 million from the National Science Foundation to study the resilience, adaptability, and vulnerabilities of important groundwater resources.

I want to share that Jennifer L. Freeman, Professor of Toxicology in the School of Health Sciences, will serve as the Interim Director of the Center for the Environment. She succeeds center director Tim Filley, who is leaving Purdue to launch a new environment and sustainability initiative at the University of Oklahoma.

Purdue University engineers have developed a variant of the seawater desalination process called “batch reverse osmosis,” which promises better energy efficiency, longer-lasting equipment and the ability to process water of much higher salinity.

American Resources Corp. and Purdue University have teamed to advance an environmentally safer method that recycles rare-earth metals to advance clean energy electronic technologies used in hard disk drives, electric vehicles, wind turbines and other electronics.

In his multi-year project, Jacob Pecenka, a Ph.D. student in entomology, evaluated how an integrated pest management approach to growing watermelons in Indiana affected the ability of bees to provide pollination.
