Spring 2020 – PHRM 490 (free)

Pharmacy for Non-Pharmacists CRN 22674 – PHRM 49000 – 025 This course will be offered for the first time in the Spring 2020 semester.  It is designed for students pursing a degree in a healthcare related field other than pharmacy.  It is intended to provide an introduction to pharmacy law, prescription abbreviations, and commonly prescribed medications.  The majority of the course will be devoted to introducing approximately 100 commonly used medications, both prescription and over-the-counter.   Emphasis will be placed on uses, dosing, side effects, and patient information.  General knowledge of… Read more Spring 2020 – PHRM 490 (free) →

SP2020 PHPR 48900 (free) – Complementary and Alternative Medicine – Space Available

Interesting class with an emphasis on global health. This class is taught in the College of Pharmacy, but is open to non-pharmacy majors. It is a 1 credit class intended to expose students in health care fields to alternative health care practices used by people around the world. 

ABE 591: Machine Learning & High-Performance Computing for Digital Ag & Biological Engineering; Part 1: Algorithms, resilient data lakes, & analytics at the edge

Dr. Somali Chaterji (Assistant Professor, Department of Ag and Biological Engineering, Purdue University) will be offering a one-credit data science & data engineering course for non-computer science majors titled: ABE 591: “Machine Learning & High-Performance Computing for Digital Ag & Biological Engineering; Part 1: Algorithms, resilient data lakes, & analytics at the edge”. This course is about data stories, data lakes, and algorithms that will provide the conceptual and foundational bases for machine learning (ML) applied to genomics, digital agriculture, and IoT, to name a few domains. These are some… Read more ABE 591: Machine Learning & High-Performance Computing for Digital Ag & Biological Engineering; Part 1: Algorithms, resilient data lakes, & analytics at the edge →

Undergraduate Research Assistant Positions at Bumsoo Han’s Research Group

We are looking for motivated students who are interested in research in biomechanical engineering and biomaterials. The groups research aims to develop new biomaterials and tissue models using microfluidics and 3D printing technologies. These models are used to quantitatively measure cellular processes, discover new drugs, and test drug formulations for effective delivery. For Spring 2020, we are looking for students for following projects: Development of new hybrid hydrogel-elastomer materials 3D printed tumor-on-chip microfluidic platforms for high throughput drug screening Strong background in mechanical engineering disciplines are desired. These include thermal… Read more Undergraduate Research Assistant Positions at Bumsoo Han’s Research Group →

Looking for Research in Fall 2019?

ME 49800 (Fa19) Project (3 credit hours)Contact: Prof. Wassgren (wassgren@purdue.edu) Project Title: Optimizing Particle Shape For Flow and Packing Project DescriptionThe objective of this project is to determine what particle shapes result in good bulk flow behavior, but dense packings when flow ceases. This information is useful in the design of particles for use in powder bed fusion 3D-printing applications. In powder-based 3D printing, particles will ideally flow well in order to form a uniform powder base layer, but pack densely and uniformly so that fused powder parts have uniform,… Read more Looking for Research in Fall 2019? →
