Joining the Australian Research Council Nanotechnology Network

Step 1: Group Registation

Is your group listed under Research Groups? If not, please have your Group Leader fill out the group registration form. Your group will appear in the groups listing after it has been approved by the webmaster. If your group is listed, then proceed to Step 2.

Step 2: Create an online profile

Create an online profile. All new profile submissions or changes must be approved by the webmaster before appearing on the website. This means that there will be a delay of up to 24 hours before your profile appears online.

Step 3: Complete the B10 form

Please fill out a B10 form and return to ARCNN. The B10 form requires your signature. If you have an electronic signature, you can email the completed form to "arcnn@ausnano.net". The B10 form can also be faxed to ARCNN at 61 2 6125 3915.
If you would like a copy of the ARC funding guidelines please send an email to arcnn@ausnano.net
