Inside two advanced research facilities 🔧
Staff from Research & Prototype Foundry + Sydney Manufacturing Hub – #USYD Core Research Facilities – held their first joint workshop and site visit: touring labs, sharing projects and strengthening collaboration. A valuable opportunity to exchange ideas.
Great to be on campus for O-Week at #Swinburne, #UTS & #USyd 🎉
We spent the week listening to students - what they’re excited for & what feels overwhelming.
Those insights are shaping OurHerd@Uni: a free digital hub with real student stories, campus support directories & wellbeing tools.
Tiny tweaks to a molecule’s shape and tail length can make a ‘designer liquid’ either stay solid, flow or self-organise into nanoscale layers, new study shows. Research supported by Sydney Analytical, a #USYD Core Research Facility.
