Summary
How gender shapes the world: a linguistic perspective. This project will seek to understand and explain gender roles in Australian society, and in nearby nations. Emphasis is placed on training researchers with an immigrant or minority background, working towards the empowerment of women researchers. This will enhance our nation's capacity to interpret and manage gender roles in multicultural contexts.

Summary
The wellsprings of linguistic diversity. A quarter of the world's languages are spoken in our region. This project tackles the riddle of why there are so many languages in parts of the world like Australia and New Guinea, and so few in others. Understanding the causes of language diversity will help the countries and communities in our region maintain their rich linguistic heritage.

Summary
A molecular quantum simulator. This project will create a molecular quantum simulator to address outstanding questions in the fields of superconductivity, superfluidity, quantum magnetism, topological quantum matter, and quantum non-equilibrium physics. This project will enable Australia to compete with other nations’ efforts to build quantum technologies that are enabled by cold atom and cold molecule physics for future needs in simulation, computing, sensing and metrology.

Summary
Nonlinear optical phononics: harnessing sound and light in nonlinear nanoscale circuits. This project will open a new field of physics by building the first integration platform in which light and sound interact in nonlinear nanoscale circuits. This interaction will be harnessed for new signal processing applications, leading to dramatic improvements in microwave technologies for radar, communications and sensing at the nanoscale.

Summary
Large-scale statistical machine learning. This research program aims to develop the science behind statistical decision problems as varied as web retrieval, genomic data analysis and financial portfolio optimisation. Advances will have a very significant practical impact in the many areas of science and technology that need to make sense of large, complex data streams.
