Smart Matrix™ approaches towards neo vascularisation in bone repair. Bone injuries cost Australia more than $1 billion annually. The development of a medical device combining novel pro-angiogenic technology, Smart Matrix™, with polymer scaffolds for treatment of bone defects by this project, will facilitate rapid development of a blood supply within the defect, aiding bone growth and reducing overall costs compared to current treatments.

The proposed Material Characterisation Facility using non-destructive methods will be unique to Australia. Precise characterisation of advanced materials such as dielectrics and superconductors using the facility will progress emerging technologies within the electronic and communication research area. The inclusion of a microwave scanning test bed within the laboratory will allow engineers, scientists, biologists and medical scientists to safely detect the intrinsic electromagnetic properties of electronic materials and tumours in biological tissues or poor quality agricultural produce. This comprehensive material characterisation facility will therefore benefit the peoples of Australasia in many significant and diverse ways.Read moreRead less
