How algae mastered quantum physic
Simple single-celled algae use highly sophisticated quantum physics to harvest and convert solar energy for their survival, a new study suggests.
The study, published in the prestigious science journal Nature, was by an international team of Canadian, Italian and Australian researchers, including two UNSW biophysicists – Professor Paul Curmi and Dr Krystyna Wilk. Read the full story.

Gordon Godfrey Bequest
The Gordon Godfrey Bequest promotes the advancement of theoretical physics within the University by providing
limited financial support to assist in the travel and
accommodation expenses of academic visitors to the
University in this area. Applications for financial support for visitors in 2010
(first round) will be considered shortly by the Gordon
Godfrey Committee. Further Information. |
