Australian University Science is a bi-annual publication that highlights the interplay between university research and industry. Produced by the Australian Council of Deans of Science, it reaches a targeted list of politicians, industry leaders and research professionals in Australia and overseas through print and digital production and the website ScienceMeetsBusiness.com.au
The latest issue asserts that the university-science research value chain is complex, iterative, and has value at all stages. There are many steps along the ‘runway’ of innovation and all of us — the researchers, the end users, those of us in leadership, and those just starting out — play a role in its ultimate course.

University science outcomes include high-profile commercialisable research, such as green hydrogen or quantum information systems technology, “blue sky” research and its new directions. It also drives policy change and creates community knowledge.
View this issue online and discover brief and compelling case studies of Australian university science as value chains across environmental, physical, chemical and biological sciences, with timelines of takeoff from fundamental to applied research.
