This proposal will address fundamental issues related to nanomaterials and their applications in biology and medicine. Accurate mathematical models will be formulated, leading to new practical techniques in nanobiotechnology, safe and effective methods to diagnose and cure diseases including cancer via targeted drug and gene delivery, and detection methods for biological hazards, such as those arising from biological terrorism. The research facility proposed involves significant training of applied mathematicians at honours, PhD and postdoctoral levels and multidisciplinary collaboration, ensuring that Australia maintains and develops an expertise in nanobiotechnology well into the future.

该提案将解决与纳米材料及其在生物学和医学中的应用相关的基本问题。将制定精确的数学模型，从而产生纳米生物技术的新实用技术、通过靶向药物和基因递送来诊断和治疗包括癌症在内的疾病的安全有效的方法，以及生物危害（例如生物恐怖主义引起的危害）的检测方法。拟议的研究设施涉及对荣誉、博士和博士后级别的应用数学家进行大量培训以及多​​学科合作，以确保澳大利亚在未来保持和发展纳米生物技术方面的专业知识。
