Most eye diseases have a genetic contribution, whether rare disorders affecting children such as retinoblastoma or congenital cataracts through to common disorders of older people such as myopia, age-related macular degeneration or glaucoma. We will continue our successful research to find genes that cause these diseases and use this to improve patient care and prevent blindness. We will work out how families can use this genetic information to participate in trials to develop new treatments.

The ARC Training Centre for CubeSats, Unmanned Aerial Vehicles and their Applications aims to train the next generation of workers in cutting edge advanced manufacturing, entrepreneurship, and commercial space and unmanned aerial vehicle applications. The Australian economy, security, and society increasingly rely on access to space for vital data and services, and a skilled workforce is required to grow the sector and capitalise on global opportunities. Of great commercial value, with very low costs, CubeSats are a new class of small satellites, which with UAVs are disrupting the international satellite market. The expected outcome of this Training Centre is to develop new instruments, technology and products to solve crucial problems, and develop a world-class Australian industry in CubeSats, unmanned aerial vehicles, and related products.Read moreRead less
