WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind. \u2014Purdue University and Eli Lilly and Company are strengthening their long-standing strategic research collaboration with the announcement of the Eli Lilly and Company and Purdue University Research Alliance Center<\/a> (LPRC). The partnership advances bold science through discovery, innovation, education and technology transfer to improve health outcomes around the world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The LPRC will serve as an essential hub for collaborative exploration of new technologies that enhance every phase of pharmaceutical research, from discovery to delivery.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The LPRC\u2019s mission is to push the boundaries of science through collective learning and active engagement between Purdue and Lilly researchers. The basic research in collaboration with Purdue faculty and students helps Lilly investigate the development of technologies and medicines, improving the pace of getting therapies to people who need them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Currently, LPRC researchers at Purdue and Lilly are focused on genetic medicine, intrathecal delivery and nanoparticle drug delivery.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The LPRC also supports Purdue\u2019s recently announced One Health initiative<\/a>, which advances knowledge and innovation related to animal, human and environmental well-being through novel interdisciplinary initiatives and partnerships with industry.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cPurdue and Lilly researchers have long demonstrated the strength that\u2019s gained by working together,\u201d said Karen Plaut, Purdue\u2019s executive vice president for research. \u201cThrough this center, we will continue to make better science and scientists for the future.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

To deliver on the promise of better health, the collaboration is engaging more than 50 researchers and 65 graduate students in key research that will build on previous accomplishments. Those achievements, which have created fertile ground for future health solutions, include 136 publications, 125 scientific disclosures of intellectual property, 8 patents and 1 copyright. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Building on the strategic partnership established in 2017 and expanded in 2023, the LPRC also is committed to fostering the next generation of pharmaceutical professionals through extensive student engagement initiatives. By developing unique curricula, experiential learning opportunities and degree programs, the partnership aims to strengthen Indiana\u2019s talent pipeline in support of Lilly\u2019s mission to make medicines that make life better for people who need them. This initiative is already well underway, with 323 graduate and 13 undergraduate students actively engaged in LPRC research to date.
