Researchers in CSIRO and KU are keen to deepen our existing collaborative work in nanostructure interpretation addressing health challenges and developing new collaborative research areas and networks in metal and composite additive manufacturing. This project aims to further enhance the CSIRO-KU collaboration and share the latest advances by a series of meetings, seminars, workshops, joint symposiums, and exchanges of our staff from both organisations to each other, as well as some study visits by selected KU post-graduate students to CSIRO labs in the next 3 years. By these engagement and communication activities, the project will aid to develop further CSIRO-KU collaborations in advanced materials and processes, i.e. metal 3D printing. Apart from the involved researchers in both organisations (and some students in KU), this project also aims to involve more people from both organisations and their networks as well as to communicate our research collaboration and science innovations in broader academic and research communities in both countries. During the current COVID restriction time, we will develop webpages, electronic brochures, posters and hold on-line meetings, seminars, workshops, etc. We also expect face-to-face meetings and lab visits to other sites in the late stage of the project when travel restriction is released.
