The University of Queensland launched a makerspace of world-class standards, placing this top 50-university at the forefront of hands-on education in the country.

The new makerspace facilities, UQ Innovate, are the largest of its kind in the country. The space features a 1200 square metre workshop with advanced prototyping and manufacturing machines and tools. Some equipment include 3D printers, vacuum formers, waterjet cutters, and industrial robots.

Professor Vicki Chen, Executive Dean of the Faculty of Engineering, Architecture and Information Technology said that these new facilities would give students at UQ a competitive edge over others while entering the job market.

“One of our main roles as a university is to give our students the confidence and capability to embrace the challenges of a changing world. With the launch of UQ Innovate, we are in a much stronger position to fuel their curiosity, so they can drive sustainable solutions at the cutting edge, today and tomorrow,” he added.

Design and build teams from UQ Racing and UQ Space teams have used the university’s expertise and facilities to produce competitive rockets and race cars on a national level.

Myrthe Snoeks, Managing Director of UQ Space and engineering and arts student said that her team was able to accomplish a lot in the past year owing to UQ’s facilities and support, including becoming a winner of the 2019 Australian University Rocket Competition, which will be strengthened with the addition of the new makerspace.

Myrthe also said, “With the launch of these new facilities, we have the tools we need to tackle even more exciting and challenging projects, with the aim to go further than any Australian university team has gone before.”

An antiviral surface coating technology developed by The University of Queensland could provide an extra layer of protection against COVID-19 and influenza. The coating has already proven effective in killing the virus that causes COVID-19, showing promise as a barrier against transmission on surfaces and face masks.

UQ's Australian Institute for Bioengineering and Nanotechnology researcher Professor Michael Monteiro said the water-based coating deployed worm-like structures that attack the virus.

''When surgical masks were sprayed with these ‘nanoworms', it resulted in complete inactivation of the Alpha variant of Sars-CoV-2 and influenza A,'' Professor Monteiro said.

This innovation was made possible through collaboration with Boeing, with testing at the Peter Doherty Institute for Infection and Immunity allowing the joint research project to succeed.

''The chemistry involved is versatile, so the coating can be readily redesigned to target emerging viruses and aid in controlling future pandemics.''

''Antiviral coatings applied on mask surfaces could reduce infection and provide long-lasting control measures to eliminate both surface and aerosolised transmission,'' he said.

''We know that COVID-19 remains infectious for many hours or days on some surfaces, and provides a direct route to infection.

''Therefore, there is greater emphasis on eliminating both surface and airborne transmission to complement vaccination of the population to stop the current pandemic.''

Part of the research's success lies in the fact that the coating developed is water-based, aligned with existing manufacturing techniques in the industry, and is friendly to the environment. It will complement masks as part of ongoing measures to protect society against infections like COVID-19.
