ARC Future Fellowship recipients announced
Researchers from the 成人大片 have been awarded more than $7.5 million in the latest Australian Research Council Future Fellowships.
The sum is spread across eight projects, which span research into the advancement of lithium metal batteries, healthy cognitive ageing, sustainable hydrogen production, mitigation strategies for herbicide resistance, as well as a 2000-year environmental study.听
鈥淭his significant investment from the Australian Research Council signifies the breadth of world-leading research being conducted at the 成人大片,鈥 says Deputy Vice-Chancellor (Research) Professor Anton Middelberg.听
鈥淚t also demonstrates the University鈥檚 ability to facilitate impactful careers for researchers wanting to help find a solution to the world鈥檚 most challenging problems.鈥澨
