Purdue University’s Office of Research has named nine faculty as research fellows in Indiana’s AnalytiXIN, an academic-industry initiative based in Indianapolis. AnalytiXIN was established to develop a digital community, including a collaboration location in Indianapolis, to strengthen engagement among academic researchers with their industry counterparts. The project is intended to drive sustained innovation and enable Indiana companies to expand their digital capabilities and skilled workforces. AnalytiXIN emphasizes research in the life sciences and manufacturing – two of Indiana’s key economic drivers.

A hyperdiverse class of pathogens of humans and wildlife, including the malaria parasite Plasmodium falciparum, relies on multigene families to encode antigenic variation. As a result, high (asymptomatic) prevalence is observed despite high immunity in local populations under high-transmission settings.

Protein function prediction is one of the long-standing, fundamental topics of bioinformatics, which involves profiling the activities and interactions of proteins. Although protein functions are eventually determined by experiments, the experimental effort and expense slow down the process of function discovery, which is in contrast to the ever-increasing volume of sequenced proteins.
