See attached Because Purdue is part of a BIG 10 Academic Alliance, our PhD and MS candidates get invited to an annual virtual career fair hosted by The Ohio State University. Recruitment is open to any academic institution or company, but only students and postdocs from the BIG 10 Alliance can register to be seen by these recruiters. Last year, 1,900 participants met with recruiters from 42 institutions. This year, OSU is holding three fairs over three days: · Career Fair for Postdoc Positions on October 21, 12 noon to 3PM ET · Career Fair for Faculty Positions on October 22, 12 noon to 4PM ET · Career Fair for Industry Positions on October 23, 12 noon to 4PM ET You can participate in one or all three for free! Once you register, you will receive a Google sheet with recruiter information including job position descriptions. You can sign up for one-on-one or group slots with individual recruiters, depending on what they have available. The number of recruiters build up over time, so you will want to keep checking the Google sheet for new opportunities and sign up for slots before they get full. The career fair uses the Handshake platform which Purdue does not host, so OSU has created a “workaround” for Purdue students to still participate. I have attached the workaround protocol for you to create your profile and submit your CV. If you want your CV or resume to be shared with recruiters prior to the fair, you must submit them by NOON, SEPT. 29th-instructions below. · Submit your CV for the Academia Hiring Fairs<https://nam04.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fgo.osu.ed…> · Submit your resume for BIG10 GSPIRE<https://nam04.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fgo.osu.ed…> Please use the registration link below each fair to sign up and get noticed! · BIG10 Academia Postdoc Hiring Fair<https://nam04.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fgo.osu.ed…> 📅 Tuesday, October 21 | ⏰ 12:00 – 3:00 PM ET Open to: PhD students and Postdocs only Explore: Postdoctoral positions nationwide · BIG10 Academia Faculty Hiring Fair<https://nam04.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fgo.osu.ed…> 📅 Wednesday, October 22 | ⏰ 12:00 – 4:00 PM ET Open to: PhD students and Postdocs only Explore: Faculty positions in all tracks · BIG10 Graduate Student & Postdoc Industry Recruitment Event (GSPIRE)<https://nam04.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fgo.osu.ed…> 📅 Thursday, October 23 | ⏰ 12:00 – 4:00 PM ET Open to: MS, PhD, and Postdoc students from all disciplines Explore: Internships and full-time careers in industry and government If you have any problems using the Handshake workaround, please email the fair coordinator, Jeremy Hale at hale.516(a)osu.edu<mailto:hale.516@osu.edu> , and identify yourself as a Purdue graduate student.

Dear faculty, staff and students, For our Grad Program Fall community service event, we will be raising funds for the Hunger Hike again this year and our seeking donations for our walk. Proceeds will go to help fight hunger both in Greater Lafayette and in Haiti. If you would like to help support this cause, please use the link below. Our walk will take place on September 21st. A QR code and donation link are below. We would also love to get a group of faculty, staff and students to walk with us for this event whether you are able to donate or not, we would love to have you walk with us. If you need a ride, please let me know, I can plan on being at MJIS to pick students up if needed.

BME PhD Defense Announcement for Jee Hyun Park (D. Brubaker and D. Chan, co-advisors)
by Sandra M May 09 Sep '25

09 Sep '25

BME PhD Defense Announcement for Jee Hyun Park (D. Brubaker and D. Chan, co-advisors) Everyone is invited to attend the public presentation beginning at 9:30 AM ET. Title: Cross-Species Modeling of Therapeutic Signatures in Alzheimer's Disease Date: September 16, 2025 Time: 9:30 AM ET Location: MJIS 2001 and Zoom - https://purdue-edu.zoom.us/j/98861664455?pwd=yOMFyxBWuk4QYPFr4hEjPQmNeJnCrm…<https://nam04.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fpurdue-ed…> Committee: Dr. Douglas K. Brubaker (Co-chair), Dr. Deva D. Chan (Co-chair), Dr. Leopold N. Green, Dr. Yunjie Tong Abstract: Alzheimer's Disease (AD) is a brain disease that compromises cognition. Mouse models have been generated to improve our knowledge of the disease progression and to determine potential treatments. These models, however, are limited in scope and fail to account for the multiple factors that impact AD. It is therefore a challenge to translate therapeutic findings from preclinical testing to clinical trials. To address this translatability gap, I used computational modeling to bridge transcriptomics data from mice and humans and discover potential therapeutics. We performed modeling across species of microglia cells to identify impaired metabolic and inflammatory pathways in human AD, distinguished from those in mice. Based on our findings, I conducted a screening analysis for drugs that expressed opposite signatures to the AD microglia features. In addition, I investigated mouse models comprising different genetic risk factors through different modeling techniques to discover inflammatory mechanisms upregulated in human AD. Through drug screening, I identified insomnia drugs, suggesting a potential role of lack of sleep in AD. I further examined the effects of the insomnia drug, suvorexant, through in vivo cerebrospinal fluid samples. Thus, computational modeling could advance our understanding of the disease and provide a tool to inform us of drug candidates to test for AD.
