In our inaugural MFSN workshop, Australian and Malaysian researchers from Monash Engineering presented brief presentations about their current research topics, along with the key challenges and opportunities. We work across many fields - from the design of new diagnostic instrumentation, through to fundamental bio/chemo sensing chemistries, integration of sensors into devices, artificial intelligence, novel materials, and remote sensing just to name a few. We also work across a number of application areas ranging from biomedical sensing through to agriculture, food and dairy, process sensing/control, pharmaceuticals, etc. Now its time to get our students, acadmics and ECRs together more often so that we can identify the big opportunities for our end-users and stakeholders, both in the short-term and long-term.
