The initiative will provide the foundations for the establishment of an Australian Research Network in Analytical Science (ARNAS), which will bring together fundamental researchers and practitioners working in quantitative chemical analysis and related areas. ARNAS will provide national coordination of research in analytical science, coverage of the newest developments, pooling of expertise and research facilities and resources, and rapid dissemination of outcomes. ARNAS will significantly advance the national research agenda for analytical science by improving awareness of research activities and expertise, providing enhanced education and opportunities for the next generation of analytical scientists, and by stimulating new international collaborations.Read moreRead less
Blocking of the interfaces of polymeric ion sensors - implications for novel sensor applications. Control of the transmembrane fluxes of polymeric ion sensors represents a paradigm shift that has revolutionised the use of these analytically important devices. This project will develop and characterise innovative methods for controlling these fluxes by using blocked interfaces, and this has important ramifications for the development of robust and reliable sensors, as well as novel biosensors.
