School of Information Technology and Electrical EngineeringSingle-component organic solar cells
Organic semiconductors are an attractive solution for solar cells that are low-cost and environmentally sustainable. This project will employ time-resolved spectroscopic techniques to understand the charge generation process in solar cell material that are designed for intrinsic charge generation.
Engineered mesoporous silica nanoparticles loaded with natural bioactive molecules for breast cancer therapy
Silica nanoparticles afford excellent carriers for drug loading and ligand conjugation. This project will design nanoformulations loaded with bioactive molecules. Engineered particles conjugated with ligands/antibodies will achieve high efficacy of nature derived molecules for breast cancer therapy.
How Gig Economy Workers Cope With Job Ambiguity
Gig economy workers face challenges because their work is mediated via algorithms. They lack supervisors to guide them and so are left on their own when solving problems. We aim to study how workers deal with and overcome such ambiguity in their jobs, and offer insights into this growing issue.

An Investigation into Social and Cultural Barriers to Adoption of Hygiene Products by Menstruating Women in India and Australia
Menstruation is a common experience for women but also a taboo topic. Many myths about menstruation exist, and most cast menstruation in a negative light. Better understanding how people think about the menstrual cycle should illuminate barriers women face in personal and professional space.
I. Application of non-contact THz spectroscopic imaging towards preservation of heritage structures in India
This project will involve experimental studies and data analyses for important heritage buildings, like the Taj Mahal. It will use a THz broadband imaging system at IIT Delhi, followed by THz s-SNOM spectroscopy facilities at UQ to explore non-invasive detection of sub-surface faults within marble.
