Current Research Activities
Brett's research is centred on the development and application of new advanced materials for application within the analytical sciences and beyond. This research underpins a number of the University's research themes, such as Better Health, Environment, Resources and Sustainability, although direct alignment within the Data, Knowledge and Decisions Theme is most immediate. A major driver of this research is to expand the current boundaries of analytical science, developing new technologies and analytical approaches to enable greater qualitative and quantitative exploration of our natural and man-made chemical and biological environments. On a more specific front, within the Australian Centre for Research on Separation Science (ACROSS) research interests focus upon the production and characterisation of new materials and platforms for application within the analytical and bio-analytical sciences, and in particular advanced inorganic and organic phase materials for selective extraction and separation purposes. Within the ARC Centre of Excellence for Electromaterials Science research is focussed upon the development and application of novel materials within new platforms and devices, towards next generation analytics and diagnostics.
Existing Linkages
Brett is currently a CI and Theme Leader within the ARC Centre of Excellence for Electromaterials Science, with collaborating researchers based within the University of Wollongong, Monash University, University of Melbourne and Swinburne University of Technology. The Australian Centre for Research on Separation Science has partner nodes within Monash university, the University of Western Sydney and RMIT University. Brett is also a CI within the ARC Training Centre for Portable Analytical Separation Technologies (ASTech) in collaboration with Trajan Scientific and Medical.
