Digital chemistry and catalysis: redefining reactions in confined systems

这项桂冠计划旨在通过在澳大利亚发现的一种全新的纳米流体方法，开启化学催化和反应操纵的新时代。通过对这一现象的进一步研究，它旨在提供新的见解，了解是什么驱动了受外加电场控制的受限系统中的化学反应。它还将开发新的技术平台，以微型化和实现按需软件控制(数字)化学，在制药、生物技术和化学工业中有广泛的应用。项目的成功将在现代社会、环境以及高科技和制造业的许多领域产生深远影响，同时进一步增强澳大利亚的主权制造能力。

This Laureate program aims to initiate a new era of chemical catalysis and reaction manipulation via an entirely novel nanofluidic approach discovered in Australia. By further studying this phenomenon, it aims to deliver new insights into what drives chemical reactions in confined systems controlled by applied electric fields. It will also develop novel technology platforms to miniaturise and enable on-demand software-controlled (digital) chemistry, with broad applications in pharmaceutical, biotechnology and chemical industries. Project success will have a profound impact in many areas of modern society, the environment and the high-tech and manufacturing industry, while further enhancing Australia's sovereign manufacturing capability.
