Stents are mesh-wired scaffolds implanted into narrowed arteries to prevent heart attacks and strokes. They still fail in 1 in 10 patients, despite being the most common treatment for the leading cause of death worldwide.

Cardiovascular disease is the single largest killer in the world, causing heart attacks and strokes. Experimental investigation of underlying principles is key to combating this epidemic; however, individual considerations are still completely missing.

One of the most sought-after properties in photonics is strong nonlinearity—the ability for particles of light to interact with one another. This can be achieved by hybridising light with matter resulting in new particles called exciton polaritons.

This project aims to overcome a fundamental barrier in quantum optics: the probabilistic nature of creating non-Gaussian quantum states of light.

    As of 8 April 2026, Australia has 73 space objects in orbit, including 2 rocket bodies.

The Smart Mission Design Lab at UNSW Canberra is dedicated to advancing research and education in space systems engineering, with a particular focus on intelligent and data-driven mission design.

The Advanced Combustion Diagnostics group conducts in-depth research across thermodynamics, fluid dynamics, combustion, heat, and mass transfer.
