Overview

The Purdue Institute of Inflammation, Immunology, and Infectious Disease (PI4D) is leveraging the significant diversity of life sciences, physical sciences and engineering on campus to invent and integrate basic immunologic advances and new diagnostics, probe basic biological and inflammatory processes, and develop and commercialize novel intervention methods to control an array of chronic inflammatory conditions, cancer and infectious diseases.

The center is structured around four program areas:

Imaging and Diagnostics

Immunology and Inflammation

Infectious Diseases

Control and Intervention

By integrating across program areas and leveraging Purdue’s vast expertise and resources in inflammation, immunology and infectious disease, the center is able to partner across campus and with Indiana University Medical Center and Notre Dame, creating synergies for maximum human impact.
