Areas of Interest
Areas of research interest include, but are not limited to:
Purdue One Health Initiative
This strategic recruitment will help advance Purdue’s One Health initiative (https://www.purdue.edu/onehealth/) which seeks to tackle complex challenges with real-world impact at the intersection of human, animal, and plant health. This recruitment initiative builds on previous strategic faculty recruitment initiatives in: (1) Integrated Health; (2) AI-Driven Biomolecular Design, and (3) Advanced Chemistry. In addition, a parallel strategic faculty recruitment initiative in Healthy and Resilient Living Systems is ongoing. Through academic programs, research, facility infrastructure and industry partnerships, Purdue is making giant leaps in improving health outcomes for all living things and driving economic growth regionally and globally. This strategic faculty recruitment initiative focused on Intelligent Medicines is expected to build on prior recruitment initiatives and existing Purdue research and academic strengths, to transform research and impact human, animal and environmental health by bridging silos and fostering collaboration across disciplines.
The Intelligent Medicines theme seeks to create a framework that improves human, animal, and environmental health through the integration of technology, data, and systems thinking. This faculty recruitment initiative is disease agnostic and aims to establish new capabilities in AI-enabled therapeutic development, non-animal models of disease, advanced manufacturing, intelligent health systems, digital twins, robotics, human factors, supply chain resilience, and health technology innovation. By combining strengths in device innovation, computational intelligence, manufacturing systems, and healthcare operations, Purdue intends to create a highly visible flagship that strengthens industry engagement, expands workforce development opportunities, and attracts significant external funding.
