The building blocks of life over 12 billion years: This fellowship project aims to develop new theoretical models and combine them with innovative observations from new Australian 3D technology to trace how the building blocks of life — carbon, oxygen, and nitrogen — formed and assembled from the infant universe to the present day. The elements transform the way new stars are born, the way planets are formed, the way stars explode and die, and the way stars assemble into new galaxies. The origin of the elements is an outstanding problem which is driving the establishment of new international telescopes; Australia alone has invested over $480 million in astronomical infrastructure over the past 8 years. This project aims to provide the critical mentoring and training to the next generation of astronomers required to fully exploit Australia's major investment in astronomical infrastructure.

120亿年生命的组成部分：该奖学金项目旨在开发新的理论模型，并将其与澳大利亚新3D技术的创新观测结合联合收割机，以追踪生命的组成部分-碳，氧和氮-如何从婴儿宇宙到今天形成和组装。这些元素改变了新恒星诞生的方式，行星形成的方式，恒星爆炸和死亡的方式，以及恒星聚集成新星系的方式。这些元素的起源是一个突出的问题，它正在推动建立新的国际望远镜;仅澳大利亚在过去8年中就在天文基础设施上投资了4.8亿美元。该项目旨在为下一代天文学家提供必要的指导和培训，以充分利用澳大利亚在天文基础设施方面的重大投资。
