Summary
Multiphoton confocal microscope for high-speed, deep tissue imaging and multimodal nanoscale characterisation. This facility will provide the ability to optically section deep nanoparticles, cells, tissues and whole animals at high speed with unsurpassed spatial resolution at the atomic level. It will give biomedical, physical and life scientists and materials engineers the opportunity to image a range of dynamic processes and reconstruct these in three dimensions for the first time.
A nanoengineered solution to drug delivery in bone. This project presents an exciting new approach of applying nanotechnology to bone research. By combining our expertise in nanoengineering of new materials, mathematical modelling and bone biology, this project will result in a well-characterised model for drug delivery into bone and lead to a new therapeutic approach for treating bone diseases.

Partnering University of Melbourne researchers, with video surveillance experts SenSen, engineering consultants ARUP and the Melbourne Cricket Club, the project addresses research enabling a system-integrating, existing surveillance, infrastructure to model crowd behaviour and exit strategies, providing real-time analysis, prediction and response capabilities for venue managers and emergency services. This new capability enhances utilisation of security resources to prevent injury and fatalities in evacuation scenarios, applicable to existing venues and influencing the development of new facilities around the country. The project delivers researcher training, global clientele for local technology and a platform for local industry growth.Read moreRead less
