Cooperation between researchers and consistent government funding are finally bearing fruit.
Australia’s research output in nanotechnology and nanoscience has increased rapidly in recent years, putting the country in a strong position among the leading nations in the field.
Strong investments in Australian nanoscience seem to be paying off. It is the only country apart from China to have more than one institution in Nature Index’s 25 fastest-rising list for nanoscience and nanotechnology-related output in 2020–21 . Germany, the United States and South Korea each have one institution in this list. China, which dominates, has 20.
In each of these centres of excellence, you need to have international partnerships. At my own centre; we work with the Leibniz Institute of Photonic Technology in Germany and we also have nanomaterial manufacturing collaborations with the Chinese Academy of Sciences in Beijing. But it was more than that; everyone — from researchers at different universities to industry scientists and the government — started to ‘play nice’ together on this. The fact you have all of these centres of excellence is proof of this, because the ARC’s definition of such a centre includes deep and significant collaborations between all of these sectors. The centres simply wouldn’t exist without it.
We also need to think about what the priorities of Australia’s new Labor government, elected in May, will be and who will be the best scientists to effectively communicate the case for nanoscience funding in a boardroom setting. Australia’s success in doing that in 1990s needs to be continued.
