Harnessing the bioactivity of proteins and polypeptides: understanding and controlling adsorption processes to optimise linker free immobilisation. This project will use physical techniques and simulations to understand the interactions of biomolecules and plasma activated surfaces, allowing control of the biomolecule layer composition, orientation and conformation. This control, together with the ability of these surfaces to "lock-in" the optimised layer, will create a new generation of biodevi ....Harnessing the bioactivity of proteins and polypeptides: understanding and controlling adsorption processes to optimise linker free immobilisation.

Summary
National in-situ transmission electron microscope facilities. This project will establish six complementary transmission electron microscope (TEM) facilities at various locations. The establishment of the facilities will be a key step in developing advanced capacity in Australia and will support ground-breaking research in diverse material systems for various high-performing applications, including electronics, optoelectronics, light metals, biomaterials, energy, and environment.
