A complete Stochastic Trans-shipment Decision Model (STDM) to assist logistics practitioners to make cost optimised decisions. This project aims to implement a decision-makng model based on a new mathematical theory in dealing with supply and demand problems for businesses. The purpose is to minimise the expected logistics costs for goods trans-shipment operations along the supply chain, thereby maximising profits and enhancing the competitiveness of Australian companies.
Dissecting the physiology of multipotent mesenchymal stromal cells to develop vaccine candidates for respiratory disease. The project aims to gain an understanding of how a type of adult stem cell inhibits immune responses that cause asthma. The project will produce new stem cell products and facilitate the design of a vaccine for asthma and other respiratory diseases, which would greatly reduce the burden of such conditions.
