From the groundbreaking chemistry of Melbourne’s Nobel Prize-winning Metal-Organic Frameworks (MOFs) to microplastics trapped in extreme ocean depths, researchers across Australia are reshaping how we build, recycle, and re-engineer materials. Dive into the cutting-edge local science driving sustainable agriculture, AI-designed industrial alloys, synchrotron-based polymer research, and bio-plastics generated directly from Victorian food waste.
Flying drones to track coastal erosion, building model solar vehicles, using DNA fingerprinting to detect secretive animals – science comes alive when you experience it with others in activities that are relevant and approachable. In this Community Engagement edition we show how science and technology can open the way to knowledge and solutions for the whole community.
