Research: Flinders Nanostructures and Molecular Interactions Research Group

Flinders University has a significant group of forty or so researchers interested in building, studying, or working with nanostructures and molecular interactions. The University has recently identified this Group - the Nanostructures and Molecular Interactions Research Group - as one in which it will invest strategically for the future. Collaborations between its members have led to a distinctive line of research in which molecular assembly processes are linked with nanostructure development as well as the regulation and manipulation of molecular processes.

The Group has been set up to foster research of this nature so that important scientific advances, including many that lie at the commercially significant interface of these two areas, where molecules interact with or within nanostructures, can be achieved. Researchers, many currently with superb track records in one or other, or both of these areas, are encouraged to harness their skills in multidisciplinary projects that address objectives likely to be of interest to industry partners, such as the development of new chemical sensors and biosensors, identification of new drug and agriceutical targets, new methods of drug delivery, and new DNA and protein based technologies.

Corporate Alliances/Partnerships
The Group interacts with Flinders Technologies Pty Ltd., who undertake to assist with commercialising intellectual property developed by the Group.
Partnering Opportunities
The Group is continually interested in discussing mutually rewarding joint ventures with potential partners.
