Research

We’re a diverse and powerful research grouping with unique expertise in the chemical and molecular life sciences.

Our biomolecular research spans small synthetic molecules through to proteins, nucleic acids, viruses and microorganisms, and our materials research encompasses the design and synthesis of molecular devices, functional polymers and nanomaterials.

With an annual research income of $26 million (2023), we’re recognised internationally for our research strengths, output and demonstrated translation of discovery and technology. Our impact is testament to the breadth of our expertise, collaborative nature of our academics and strength of our partnerships.
