University produced more than a half billion dollars in research
funding for fiscal year 2019, easily making it another record year. The $520.6 million generated in 2019 shatters last year’s record of $454.5 million, marking the fifth consecutive year the university has established record funding. |

It’s
become routine during commencement weekends for students, families and
friends to line up on Stadium Avenue to snap photos with the Neil
Armstrong statue. Same on football game days, Spring Fest or any visit
to campus. You’ve probably seen TV broadcasts of Purdue athletic events
break for commercial with a well-lit shot of the statue framed by
moonlight.

A
gene called MYC has become one of the hottest targets for cancer
researchers around the world. MYC is known to drive tumor growth in
nearly all cancer types, but successfully targeting the gene has proven
to be a challenge -- one that has been baffling researchers for more than
three decades. Now, researchers at Purdue have discovered a novel set
of MYC promoter G-quadruplex stabilizers that have demonstrated
anticancer activity in human cancer cell cultures. |

Hearing
loss is so common in today's society, especially in older individuals,
that many people question the use of doing anything to protect their
hearing from noise and loud sounds. But it turns out the source of
hearing loss may have a large impact on a person’s ability to understand
speech and enjoy music. That’s the result of a new study from
researchers at Purdue and the University of Rochester that was recently
published in The Journal of Neuroscience.
