Our Director
Professor Mark Hutchinson
Director (interim) of the Institute for Photonics and Advanced Sensing.
ARC Future Fellow and Professor within the Adelaide Medical School.
Director of the ARC Centre of Excellence for Nanoscale BioPhotonics.
Scientific expert members of the National Science and Technology Council (NSTC).听Mark's world-leading team is developing innovative technologies that allow for the early diagnosis and treatment of neurological diseases, including pain. Professor Hutchinson鈥檚 research explores the 鈥渙ther brain鈥 or the other 90% of cells in the brain and spinal cord. These immune-like cells are termed glia. Mark鈥檚 research has implicated the brain's immune-like cells in the action of drugs of dependence and the negative side effects of pain treatments. He has pioneered research that has led to the discovery of novel drug activity at innate immune receptors. His work has enabled the translation of compounds at the lab bench to clinical agents used at the bedside.
In his role as Director of the CNBP he is responsible for the research program of the ARC Centre of Excellence with $50M of funding headquartered at The 成人大片, with nodes at Macquarie University and UNSW, Sydney, the RMIT, Melbourne and Griffith University Qld. The CNBP is partnered with universities and companies in Europe, the US and China, as well as other Australian institutions. Prof Hutchinson鈥檚 work with the CNBP is to "Discover new approaches to measure nano-scale dynamic phenomena in living systems鈥 and allow the first minimally invasive real-time visualisations of the 鈥渙ther brain鈥.
Mark serves as a founding member of the Operating in Contaminated Environments Advisory Council for the DSTG CBRN STaRShot, is a founding member of the executive of the Animal Welfare Collaborative (TAWC), is the Chair of the Australian Pain Solutions Research Alliance, the co-chair of the Safeguarding Australia through Biotechnology Response and Engagement (SABRE) Alliance, a Ministerial appointment to the Australian Research Council CEO Advisory Council, and one of three eminent academics reviewing the ARC Federal Legislation.

Our Chief Innovator
Professor Andre Luiten FAIP GAICD FTSE
Chief Innovator of the Institute for Photonics and Advanced Sensing听
Chair of Experimental Physics at the 成人大片
Fellow of the Australian Institute of Physics and the听Australian Academy of Technology and EngineeringAndre obtained his PhD in Physics from the University of Western Australia in 1997, for which he was awarded the Bragg Gold Medal. He has subsequently held three prestigious Fellowships from the ARC. For his efforts Andre was the joint inaugural winner of the WA Premier鈥檚 Prize for Early Career Achievement in Science.
Andre came to the 成人大片 in 2013 to take up the Chair of Experimental Physics and a South Australian Research Fellowship from the Premier鈥檚 Research and Innovation Fund.
Andre's work is aimed at the development of state-of- the-art instruments across many diverse fields of physics. He has published 6 book chapters and authored 131 journal papers (with over 5,600 citations), has over 110 conference papers, and has raised over $34M for research.
The excellence of his research has been recognised by the award of:
- Barry Inglis Medal from the National Measurement Institute, which acknowledges outstanding achievement in measurement research and excellence in practical measurements,
- Australian Institute of Physics鈥 Alan Walsh Medal for Service to Industry, and听
- prestigious 2018 Eureka Prize for Outstanding Science in safeguarding Australia.
Andre is also the co-founder and managing Director of QuantX Labs, a successful start-up commercialising the world鈥檚 most precise clock (Cryoclock) and developing the highest precision timing and sensor products.
