This project tackles ?head on? a key challenge in contemporary biological inorganic chemistry, understanding how at the atomic level aerobic life uses oxygen. All life we see is aerobic, and thus the conceptual advances from this research will progress understanding of our world and ourselves? an important cultural goal. Advancing knowledge of such fundamental processes sits firmly in the area of the Research Priority Goal: Breakthrough Science. Postgraduate research students will be trained in sophisticated state-of-the-art theoretical and synthetic chemical methodologies. The project will enhance Australia's research capability in biological (inorganic) chemistry and promote Australia's standing in the International research community.

这个项目的解决方案？正面？当代生物无机化学的一个关键挑战，了解原子水平上有氧生命如何使用氧气。我们看到的所有生命都是有氧的，因此这项研究的概念进步将促进对我们世界和我们自己的理解？重要的文化目标。推进这些基本过程的知识坚定地坐落在研究优先目标领域：突破性科学。研究生研究生将接受先进的理论和合成化学方法的培训。该项目将提高澳大利亚在生物（无机）化学方面的研究能力，并提高澳大利亚在国际研究界的地位。
