Brilliant speech from Queensland Minister for the Environment & Tourism and Science & Innovation @AndrewPowellMP, launching the 2025 Quantum Australia Conference #qac2025. Australia’s largest quantum tech conference.
Delighted at his recognition of the important research that @arc_qubic is doing, applying quantum technologies to some of the most important problems today, from medical diagnostics, to understanding brain disease, and addressing the net-zero challenge.

Australia is leading the charge in quantum biotechnology & QUBIC is at the helm! Our researchers are harnessing quantum tech to unlock breakthroughs in drug design, brain research & disease diagnosis. Pick up the latest @CosmosMagazine for an in-depth look into what we do! #IYQ25
Replying to @attoboy
@attoboy telling us #feynman’s solution to biology “you just look at the thing”. Wise words from a theoretical physicist 😁. Wonderful final plenary at the @arc_qubic Annual Symposium!
Followed up by @arc_qubic Advisory Board Chair, scientist-extraordinaire and pioneering innovator Dr Alan Finkel. With the deep quote from Emerson Pugh: “if the brain were so simple that we could understand it, we should be so simple that we couldn’t”.
Replying to @ReuvenGordon
@ReuvenGordon opening the @arc_qubic Annual Symposium with a fanatic talk on unlabelled measurements of the dynamics of single proteins, and applications in #cancer and #neurodegenerative diseases.
Followed up by @IvanKassal talking about modelling molecular dynamics with #quantum #computers. Including his fantastic recent work: nature.com/articles/s41557-0…
Brilliant to have @MicrobiomDigest speak to us @arc_qubic today about #misconduct in #biomed research. A true pioneer, data sleuth & legend in bringing science misconduct to light. Excited to work with her on this important problem from the perspective of #quantum #biotech.
Fantastic @arc_qubic Cell & Brain Workshop this week! Understanding how #quantum #sensing & #imaging tech can help understand neurodegenerative disorders. Exciting prospects in this important area. Thanks @IrinaKabakova3, @NeuralOoi, @Dzung_doha and everyone for making it happen!
Thanks to @QldGov for making this possible! Excited to be involved in developing quantum sensing tech for performance sport!
We are thrilled to partner w/ @theAIS @QldBrainInst @ProtectingSport @Griffith_Uni on developing groundbreaking #QuantumTech to revolutionise #SportsScience & athlete care for the @BNEOlympics2032 thanks to @QldGov $4.7M funding bit.ly/4eCSlS2 #LifeChangingTechnologies
Also excited that the State has entrusted @qubic to drive apps of quantum in #sportech. New tools to diagnose #concussion, prevent & assess athlete injuries, monitor blood iron levels of women athletes, and test for doping. Great vision from @qldgov for impact at #Olympic2032!
And to top it all off, investment into core quantum and advanced tech #infrastructure, #skills and #training, to drive the creation of a new high value knowledge economy here in Queensland!
Thrilled to see @QldGov further backing #quantum with $53M of investment towards real world impact.

Very excited for @qubic to be leading a Quantum Decarbonisation Alliance with @UQ_News, @CSIRO, @PsiQuantum and other partners to harness quantum technologies towards #netzero.
Great “fireside chat” on engaging First Nations people in research at the @arc_gov_au Centre of Excellence Directors Forum today. Led by Shane Boseley, COO of the Indigenous Futures CoE. Many, many opportunities to learn and partner.
A well deserved honour for a pioneer of quantum physics and biophotonics, and of the ecosystem that enables them.
Congratulations to our remarkable Deputy Director Prof Halina Rubinsztein-Dunlop on her Honorary Doctor of Science honoris causa in optics and photonics from @UofGlasgow. Halina is recognised for her unwavering commitment to the field of physics and advancing women in science.
What an uplifting story, made my day! Definitely seeing @MadMaxMovie now!

Hilarious satire piece about growth in bureaucracy in #HigherEd. It’s a real problem, taking energy away from the important mission of great teaching and research.
