Director's Message
Dear Colleagues,
I hope you had a pleasant weekend as we start the ACT School holidays.
My congratulations go the latest awardees of the ARC Linkage Projects. Professor Dragomir Neshev, Dr Mohsen Rahmani and Associate Professor Andrey Sukhorukov lead the $400k+ project “Meta-optics systems for driver-fatigue monitoring” with industry partner, Seeing Machines. Professor Susan Scott was also a part of the successful UWA-led project “International collaboration in teaching and learning of Einsteinian physics”, and Professor Chennupati Jagadish was part of the UniMelb bid, “High-brightness wavelength tuneable lasers for quantum science”.
And, a call out to interested PhD candidates and Early Career academics. Australia is hosting this year’s Asian Physics Olympiad in Adelaide and the organising committee is urgently seeking examiners. Examiners are needed for a 3 day period, after which you’re welcome to explore Adelaide or visit collaborators. Could be fun to go as a group? If you would like to be part of this all expenses paid trip to Adelaide please contact Ruth Carr (ruth.carr@asi.edu.au , who is based in in the ASI office level 4 Cockcroft East). This international event will bring 200 of the region’s best and brightest teenagers from 25 countries to Australia for nine days of academic competitions and cultural activities from 5-13 May.

Have a great week,
Tim |
