New Young Institute Advisory Council to bolster Purdue pharmaceutical manufacturing mission

The council’s five members bring expertise, business acumen, regulatory perspectives and technical skills to the institute’s mission to improve pharmaceutical manufacturing through research and workforce training. The Young Institute was established in 2022 as part of a $250 million investment in the life sciences at Purdue — a priority within the Purdue Moves initiatives, the university’s strategic plan.

The new advisors are: Robert A. Baffi; Mitchell E. Daniels, Jr.; Michael A. Klobuchar; Moheb M. Nasr; and William D. Young.

More information is available on the Purdue Office of Research website.
