Every nine minutes approximately one Australian is diagnosed with Alzheimer's disease. ARC Future Fellow Associate Professor Aaron Oakley from the University of Wollongong and his team are using
Scientists have used Raijin to solve a long-standing mystery surrounding Australia's only active volcanic area. The 500 kilometre long region stretches from Melbourne to the South Australian town of
Researchers are using NCI facilities to investigate just how accurately a tweeter's geographical location can be predicted from publicly available data. ARC Future Fellow Professor Tim Baldwin and his
It's a ground-breaking fact most people don't know: Australia already has the means to run on 100% renewable energy. "When I started my thesis in 2010, the idea that all of our electricity needs could
Malignant melanoma represents only 15% of skin cancers but it accounts for almost all skin-cancer deaths, and Australia has the highest mortality rate from malignant melanoma worldwide. That's one of
Computational science has played a key role for NCI users who have been awarded fellowships under the Australian Research Council's (ARC) Future Fellowship scheme. "The Future Fellowship scheme plays
Researchers from ANU have discovered the oldest known star in the universe, with a little help from NCI. The discovery gives us clues to what the universe was like in its infancy, 13.7 billion years
How could Swiss cheese found in a butterfly wing affect the colour of your car? Butterflies are pretty unassuming. They flit about, discreetly sipping nectar and quietly soaking up some sun. So who
New research shows projected changes in the winds circling the Antarctic may accelerate global sea level rise significantly more than previously estimated. Changes to Antarctic winds have already been
