Entanglement renormalization: a new route to strongly correlated fermions and novel states of matter in two dimensions. The expected outcome of the research program is a significant boost in our understanding of strongly correlated fermion systems, which will reinforce Australia's competitiveness and international profile in aspects of breakthrough science and frontier technologies.

The expected outcome of the research program is a significant boost in our understanding of strongly correlated fermion systems, which will reinforce Australia's competitiveness and international profile in aspects of breakthrough science and frontier technologies. By strengthening both the underpinning theory and innovative computational tools to study fermion systems, and by applying them to specific problems of recognized importance, this program will have direct implications in condensed matter physics and will exert significant influence in areas such as quantum chemistry, particle, nuclear and atomic physics, quantum computing, quantum atom optics and nanotechnology.Read moreRead less
New drugs for malaria that target histone deacetylases. There is no vaccine for malaria and current drugs are failing, contributing to millions of malaria-related deaths each year. The aim of this project is to develop new drugs to address this significant global health issue. This project will focus on drugs that act in novel ways to existing malaria drugs by targeting enzymes that are involved in altering gene expression in the parasite. These kinds of enzymes are recognised drug targets in ot ....New drugs for malaria that target histone deacetylases. There is no vaccine for malaria and current drugs are failing, contributing to millions of malaria-related deaths each year. The aim of this project is to develop new drugs to address this significant global health issue. This project will focus on drugs that act in novel ways to existing malaria drugs by targeting enzymes that are involved in altering gene expression in the parasite. These kinds of enzymes are recognised drug targets in other diseases such as cancer. The outcomes of this project will include advances in malaria drug development that build on Australian drug discovery efforts, seeding further funding opportunities from industry and other sources and contributing research training and capacity building in Australia.Read moreRead less

Summary
Access for Australian Researchers to Advanced Neutron Beam Techniques. Neutron scattering is one of the most powerful and important investigative tools in the study of materials. Australia has only a low-flux neutron source, HIFAR, which provides no cold or hot neutrons. This excludes large, important areas of science, such as functional films, polymers, self-assembly systems, biological materials, colloids and emulsions, and real-time in-situ studies.

This excludes large, important areas of science, such as functional films, polymers, self-assembly systems, biological materials, colloids and emulsions, and real-time in-situ studies.
This application aims to continue Australia's partnership with the world's most intense neutron source, ISIS in the UK, in order to sustain the considerable Australian scientific momentum which now relies on ISIS.
The outcomes will be new science that cannot be generated solely within Australia.

Summary
Access for Australian Researchers to Advanced Neutron Beam Techniques. The major national benefit will be access, by peer review, to the 35 specialised instruments at the world's leading pulsed Neutron and Muon source, ISIS. This complements the access to the eight neutron instruments that will operate at the Australian Reactor OPAL. This will support (or enable) high quality research into areas as diverse as materials development, mineral processing and aspects of biological and medical scien ....Access for Australian Researchers to Advanced Neutron Beam Techniques.

Summary
Access for Australian Researchers to Advanced Neutron Beam Techniques. The access to ISIS is of strategic benefit to Australia. In the 'run up' to the Replacement Research Reactor that benefit will be increased because of the current upgrade to ISIS and the imminent construction of a second target station to provide the world's best 'cold neutron' facilities.
