UNSW collaborators

Professor Maria Kavallaris (Children's Cancer Institute of Australia and Australian Centre for NanoMedicine).

Maria and Justin are co-directors of the and also collaborate on microRNA detection and the 3D printing of cell cultures. More details about Prof. Kavallaris' research are available on her

Professor William Rawlinson, Dr Sacha Stelzer-Braid Virology and OTDS Laboratories (SAViD), NSW Health Pathology Randwick.

Justin collaborates with Bill and Sacha on ultrasensitive single molecules for the detection of viral RNA directly in sputum samples. This work has become elevated in importance during the COVID-19 pandemic.  For more information please visit the Virology Research Laboratory.

Scientia Professor Perminder Sachdev (Centre for Healthy Brain Ageing (CHeBA), UNSW).

Perminder, Richard and Justin collaborate on the synthesis and modification of magnetic nanoparticles for magnetic nanoparticle imaging.  Please visit or to learn more. 

External Collaborators
