ElectroSpin 2010, the first International conference devoted to Electrospinning.

CSIRO's Future Manufacturing Flagship will provide innovative technology and materials to grow new manufacturing businesses, renew existing industries and help the Australian manufacturing sector address major national challenges such as energy, health, climate and waste.

CSIRO has licensed its patented Reversible Addition-Fragmentation chain Transfer polymerisation technology, RAFT, to a recently established US biotechnology company, PhaseRx.

Polymers make up many parts of our modern life; from the scent in laundry detergents, to coatings on houses, to key aspects in electronics, to new and improved medical therapies.

Presented by CSIRO, Dulux and Sustainability Victoria, this seminar explores the benefits of industrial powder coated plastic components, using the new CSIRO/Dulux system that's emission free and environmentally sustainable. It also presents results from early trial applications in the automotive industry.

CSIRO's National Security Technology Partnerships theme supports Australia's security and safety through technology the application of  technology tools and advice.

Using nanotechnology and conductive polymers to develop a new generation of plastic electronics that will change our lives in much the same way as the first microchip did.

CSIRO have researchers in the field of polymer synthesis including world leading capabilities in controlled free radical polymerisation, reactive extrusion, condensation polymerisation, biomedical polymer synthesis and polymer processing.

CSIRO's expertise includes protein expression, purification and characterisation as well as structural elucidation and modelling of proteins, small molecule-protein interactions and other materials.
