✨ 👏 Congrats! Defence Scientist Dr Kamal Gupta and colleague Dr Jafar Shojaii (MQ, UniMelb, SUT) have won the 2025 Department of Defence Eureka Prize for Outstanding Science in Safeguarding Australia - creating a radiation safe chip – protecting high-value electronic systems.
Defence has signed a research agreement with industry partner @L3HarrisTech to develop underwater acoustic communication and sensing systems. These capabilities enable #YourADF to detect threats and maintain awareness in the challenging undersea environment. #DefenceScience
Defence scientists are supporting the shift to sustainability by investigating the properties of renewable fuels. Find out about their chemistry detective work: spr.ly/6010fSWL4 #ScienceWeek
How do you navigate in the open ocean without GPS? Nicole is using Quantum science to support #YourADF by taking on this challenging puzzle. Find out more: spr.ly/6015fqrqB #ScienceWeek
Curiosity about the weird behaviour of the smallest particles in the universe led Ben to a #DSTG career in Quantum Computing! ⚛️ 🖥️ Find out more: spr.ly/6019fo8VR #ScienceWeek
🚀 🧑🔬 💡 We have officially launched #NationalScienceWeek! The Chief Defence Scientist hosted a panel with some of our valued Defence senior leaders to talk about the impact of #DefenceScience.
That’s a wrap for #ScienceAlive 2025! 🎉 After three big days, our team met some amazing future #STEMLeaders. Thanks to all who helped #DSTG showcase exciting #YourADF career paths. Now, on to #NationalScienceWeek!
