🏁 There are few places quite like Indianapolis in May — and Purdue Pharmacy’s Brooke Comer is right in the middle of the excitement.

Comer, a third-year doctor of pharmacy student, was selected as a 2026 500 Festival Princess, joining 32 other outstanding women from across Indiana chosen to serve as ambassadors for the 500 Festival, their communities, and their universities.

“Being a 500 Festival Princess provides me with the opportunity to serve as a leader and ambassador for the Festival, Purdue University, and my community while representing the spirit and tradition of Indiana,” Comer said. “I love being able to connect with others, promote service within my community, and inspire younger generations through meaningful outreach.”

The 500 Festival Princess Program recognizes young women who exemplify leadership, service, scholarship, communication, and professionalism. We’re proud to see Brooke representing Purdue Pharmacy on such a visible statewide stage. 🏎️

The multicenter study will evaluate how the assay influences patient management decisions for individuals with pancreatic cysts, a known precursor to pancreatic cancer.
