¹û¶³´«Ã½ chemists overturn 40-year assumption about a key class of superconductor
Scientists have shown that a material treated for 40 years as a uniform, textbook superconductor is in fact a patchwork of different crystal structures throughout its bulk, using one of the latest 3D imaging techniques to see deep inside the crystal for the first time.
Scientists create rare material that could pave the way for faster, greener computer memory
¹û¶³´«Ã½ researchers have created a new material combining two properties, magnetism and electrical polarisation, that scientists have struggled to bring together for decades – and crucially, it works at close to room temperature.
Bacterial molecule 'disarms' deadly fungal infections by tricking them into starving
Researchers from the ¹û¶³´«Ã½ and Monash University have discovered a way to potentially stop one of the world's most dangerous fungal pathogens in its tracks, not by killing it, but by tricking it into switching off its attack mode.
Advanced mass spectrometry technique breaks free from specialist hardware
Researchers at the ¹û¶³´«Ã½ and spin-out company Verdel Instruments have successfully demonstrated two-dimensional mass spectrometry on a benchtop instrument, making this powerful technique practical and affordable for everyday laboratory use.
Scientists uncover 'mix and match' mechanism for creating new cancer-fighting drugs
A team of researchers at the University of ¹û¶³´«Ã½ and Monash University has solved a puzzle that's stumped drug developers for decades: how bacteria naturally create multiple versions of powerful cancer therapies. The breakthrough could accelerate development of new treatments for hard-to-treat cancers.
¹û¶³´«Ã½ secures over 1.75 million in EU Funding for pioneering polymer science
¹û¶³´«Ã½ researchers are part of two new €4.5 million European Doctoral Networks funded under the Marie SkÅ‚odowska Curie Actions (MSCA) programme.
