Join the NSW Smart Sensing Network and University of Wollongong for a showcase celebrating women working at the forefront of smart sensing research.
The event will feature a series of short presentations from leading and emerging female researchers from across the University of Wollongong, highlighting the breadth of sensing research underway across science, engineering and technology.
Hear how researchers are developing new sensing technologies and applying them to challenges spanning advanced materials, health, industry and the environment.
Confirmed speakers include:
Dr Jessie Posar, a Research Fellow in the School of Physics whose work includes next-generation organic semiconductor sensors and printable wearable sensors designed to remain stable in extreme ionising radiation environments, with applications in nuclear, bioelectronic and advanced materials sensing.
Dr Xiao Liu, a Senior Research Fellow at the Intelligent Polymer Research Institute, part of the Australian Institute of Innovative Materials.
Dr Lisanne Spenkelink , an NHMRC Investigator EL1 Fellow based at Molecular Horizons.
Xiaoxiao Bu, a PhD Candidate in the School of Engineering - Mining.
and Cassie Newman, PhD Candidate Remote Sensing and Hydrological Modelling | Antarctic Research.
Facilitated by Professor Susanna Guatelli, an internationally recognised physicist and Head of the School of Mathematics and Physics at the University of Wollongong, the showcase will open with a short welcome, followed by a series of fast-paced, 10-minute research presentations.
NSSN Chief Operating Officer Nicholas Haskins will also discuss the launch of the 2027 NSSN Grand Challenge Fund.
Come along to discover some of the exciting smart sensing research being led by women at the University of Wollongong, meet researchers from across disciplines and connect with members of the sensing community.
Complimentary lunch will be served from 12pm, with presentations to follow.
