Renewable energy meets role play in this Dungeons & Dragons-inspired game, played live on stage at the pub next Wednesday! Join @quantschmant, @Constababble and @scoutboxall as they are thrown into climate crisis chaos… Will they be able to roll their way to sustainability?🎲

We are thrilled to celebrate our Associate Investigator @AnitaHoBaillie being awarded the 2024 Nancy Millis Medal for Women in Science for her exceptional leadership in the field of next-generation solar cells! #excitonscience @Sydney_Uni @Sydney_Science @SydneyNano

I had a great time attending Science Meets Parliament #SMP2024 last week with @mp2research! It was invaluable to learn how to engage with policy makers and network with both scientists and parliamentarians. Thanks @ScienceAU for a great event and @excitonscience for sending me!

Our 2023 Annual Report is available now! This interactive digital platform will enable you to discover all the Centre’s research highlights and academic achievements. You can also get to know the amazing researchers who make it happen. ar2023.excitonscience.com @arc_gov_au

A very well done to all the @excitonscience members and other participants in @FuturesAus. This inaugural research and commercialization hackathon at @RMIT delivered real results and benefits to individuals and organisations. Details about the winners soon! #betterfutures

Three innovative solutions to critical industry problems have been created! Developed by rising entrepreneurial stars from research centres and supported by commercialisation and start-up mentors, the event was a huge success. Stay tuned for more details! #betterfutures

Three innovative solutions to critical industry problems are now in flight following the inaugural edition of @FuturesAus. Soon, we’ll reveal how the inaugural Better Futures Innovation Challenge has delivered real benefits for organisations. #betterfutures

Thinking caps on! 🧢 Our teams are developing lean canvases as they close in on a final pitch to answer their industry challenges. #BetterFutures

We're underway here at @RMIT's Storey Hall! Nick Kirkwood of @excitonscience and our facilitator Myles Tehan from Hack Days Australia are taking participants through the exciting challenges and activities ahead. #BetterFutures

In collaboration with Erik Grumstrup at Montana SU, we show that tethering π-conjugated supramolecular polymers improves exciton transport and energetic homogeneity. @AmerChemSociety @NSF @excitonscience @ACSMatLett pubs.acs.org/doi/full/10.10…

An important advance published in @NatureComms showcasing high throughput processing to achieve high efficiency printed #perovskite solar cells! We are delighted to collaborate with @CSIRO, @UNSW, @Cambridge_Eng on this work. @monashengineers @excitonscience

Member profile: There is a proud tradition of independent thinking at Ludwig-Maximilians-Universität, where our Associate Investigator Jochen Feldmann is upholding the example once set by Nobel Prize winner Max van Laue. excitonscience.com/news/member-pr… @LMU_Muenchen #excitonscience

Prepping for my organic chem lecture last night and found a doodle on my notes after breakfast this morning. Looks like my 6-yr-old is helping me explain the valency of carbon. Learning by observation. 🤓

We congratulate nine brilliant and emerging STEM leaders on winning prestigious Science Meets Parliament scholarships for 2024: scienceandtechnologyaustralia.org.au/meet-the-brill… Generously sponsored by @excitonscience, @Science_Academy, @ATSE_au, @ATNUnis, @CropLifeOZ, @PawseyCentre, and @pocheSA_NT.

Our members at @SydneyChemistry and @SydneyNano have collaborated with @CNRS in France to better understand the fascinating interaction between nanoplatelets and ligands. Their findings have been published in @PNASnews: ­­ excitonscience.com/news/spontaneo… #excitonscience

🐚Inspired by nature and nanotechnology @excitonscience and @Sydney_Uni have identified ‘spontaneous curvature’ as the key factor determining how ultra-thin, artificial materials can transform into useful tubes, twists and helices scimex.org/newsfeed/spont…

Our @rmit researchers opened a pathway to enhanced sensitivity and efficiency in emerging quantum technology. Here's how: excitonscience.com/news/diamonds-… @ResearchRMIT #excitonscience

New publication! Researchers at @CNRS & @Sydney_Uni have identified ‘spontaneous curvature’ as the key factor determining how ultra-thin, artificial materials can transform into tubes, twists and helices. excitonscience.com/news/spontaneo… Led by @debmonego & @b_abk6, in @PNASNews.
