Brian Abbey on scaling up nanotechnology manufacturing

MOBIUS lead researcher Professor Brian Abbey (La Trobe University | School of Computing, Engineering and Mathematical Sciences, La Trobe University) recently spoke with Manufacturers’ Monthly about scaling up the manufacture of nanotechnology in Australia.

Professor Abbey, a recipient of Australia’s Economic Accelerator (AEA) grant scheme, was recently awarded $2.5 million to partner with AlleSense—a La Trobe start-up company and MOBIUS partner—to expand the production of advanced nanotechnology for bioimaging and biosensing applications.

In the interview, Brian discusses the economic benefits for Australian manufacturing, the opportunities for international growth and innovation, and the key challenges involved in establishing and maintaining robust quality controls.
