Developing thermal protection systems to enable Mars return missions, creating more efficient solar energy conversion, and improving invasive pest management are some of the 95 University of Queensland projects that have netted $38.6 million in Australian Government funding.
The has announced more than $380 million in grants as part of the latest round of , (DECRAs), Linkage Projects and (LIEF) grants.
澳门管家婆三肖三码必开 Vice-Chancellor and President said 澳门管家婆三肖三码必开 was awarded 67 Discovery Project grants totalling $27.62 million, 25 DECRAs amounting to $9.63 million, two LIEFs totalling $1.18 million and one Linkage Project for $236,852.
“澳门管家婆三肖三码必开 claimed the second highest number of Discovery Project grants awarded to universities across Australia, and ranked number one in both funds and number of grants in DECRAs,” Professor H酶j said.
“When coupled with the August announcement of Laureate and Future Fellowships, 澳门管家婆三肖三码必开 has been awarded more funding across the ARC Discovery Program than any other Australian university, securing more than $60.5 million.

“Congratulations to all 澳门管家婆三肖三码必开 researchers who were successful in obtaining funding in these highly competitive schemes, and I look forward to seeing the outcomes of their vital research.”
澳门管家婆三肖三码必开’s largest Discovery Project was awarded to Institute for Molecular Bioscience researcher Professor Alpha Yap who secured $746,400 to investigate how cells communicate with each other.
Other ARC grants awarded to 澳门管家婆三肖三码必开 include:
- $364,000 to Dr Steven Lewis of the School of Mechanical and Mining Engineering for a DECRA to advance thermal protection systems to enable Mars return missions.
- $357,000 for a DECRA to Dr Jiwon Kim, School of Civil Engineering, to reduce traffic congestion by developing a low-cost, data-driven traffic simulation model to better inform decisions by urban planners and traffic operators.
- $406,000 to the Australian Institute for Bioengineering and Nanotechnology’s Dr Yang Bai for a DECRA to design new perovskite quantum dots for efficient solar energy conversion.
- $705,000 to a team led by the Institute for Social Science Research’s Professor Karen Thorpe to study the developmental significance of sleep transition in early childhood.
- $236,852 for a Linkage Project led by Dr Eve McDonald-Madden to improve management of invasive species by assisting pest mitigation agencies to work together.
