We rank among the top chemistry departments in Australia. Our mission is to address real-life challenges through research excellence and to educate aspiring chemists to become leaders in industry and society.
¸ßÇ帣ÀûƬ is organised into four themes, bringing together experts and expertise to discover, develop, and disseminate solutions to pressing challenges in health, sustainability, and science literacy.
Investigating teaching, learning, assessment, student engagement and connection using reflexive practice, qualitative and quantitative approaches. Exploring science democratisation through public engagement and participation.
¸ßÇ帣ÀûƬ focuses on (nano)materials, such as MOFs, ionic liquids and solids, and polymers for a wide range of applications on batteries, fuel cells, photovoltaics, gas storage and magnets.
We develop and apply tools and technologies to provide molecular interventions for infectious diseases, cardiovascular diseases, neurodegenerative diseases, cancer, and immunological and inflammatory disorders.
¸ßÇ帣ÀûƬ includes experimental and computational work on molecular self-assembly, polymer nanoparticles and nanostructured surfaces. We address major societal challenges including sustainability and drug delivery.
We develop new theoretical and computational tools in quantum chemistry, statistical mechanics, and quantum computing, and use simulations to solve important problems in areas ranging from atmospheric chemistry to energy-conversion devices.
