The proposed facility is required by a large range of world-leading research programs in light metals, nanomaterials, fibres and biomaterials. These research programs are strongly supported by automobile, textile, mineral and advanced materials industries that have important roles in the current national economy and local communities. The facility will improve significantly our current research ability and help the creation of new research areas in nanotechnology and energy materials beneficial to clean energy, environmental protections and health care. It is also important equipment for new research student training.Read moreRead less
Nanoporous siloxane membranes for ultrasound mediated ophthalmic drug delivery. This project will develop tailored polymers for use in a novel non-invasive ocular drug delivery device which treats vision threatening conditions such as age-related macular degeneration (AMD). The outcomes of this project will enable an entirely new ocular drug delivery technology, thereby delivering significant benefit to ophthalmic healthcare.

ARC Research Hub for a World-class Future Fibre Industry. This research hub aims to transform the Australian fibre industry into a dynamic sector focused on high-performance and high-value fibres and fibre-based products. Capitalising on the research team's combined strength in fibre science and technology, and working with highly innovative small and medium enterprises and international research leaders, the hub seeks to develop advanced carbon fibres, nanofibres and high-performance novel fibres, as well as value-added applications of fibre materials. These materials are expected to help to reduce energy costs, minimise the environmental footprint of manufacturing processes and improve public health and safety. The hub will also train the next generation of industry-savvy fibre research leaders.Read moreRead less
