Purdue University Northwest has announced Associate Professor John Durocher is the 2021 recipient of the ADInstruments Macknight Innovative Educator Award by the American Physiological Society. He was recently named to a Nils K. Nelson Endowed Professorship.

“Personally, it’s a great honor,” says Durocher. “For the Health Studies program and our PNW students it will be transformational. This equipment will improve their learning experience by giving them hands-on training with equipment from a company that has set the industry standard for physiological data collection and analysis.”

Durocher holds an A.A.S., bachelor’s and Ph.D. from Michigan Technological University and a master’s degree from Northern Michigan University.
