Flinders University They say know your place. We say you’ve found it right here. CRICOS: 00114A
TEQSA: PRV12097

For six decades, Flinders has challenged convention, backed people and changed lives – and we’re just getting started. Flinders University was founded in an era of profound social, political and technological change, when longstanding conventions were being challenged by a new generation of ambitious young thinkers. A product of these times, we have always been ready to step away from the security of the familiar and forge new ways forward. From the ambition of our namesake, to the charge of our founding Vice Chancellor, this appetite for exploration is ingrained in our DNA. It has shaped our world-class curriculum, and the physical and online environments we live, learn and work in. Vibrant spaces enable new connections between academics, students and industry, giving rise to innovative, agile hubs that can quickly adapt to new challenges and opportunities.

A new $10 million genomics facility at Flinders University will help Australian researchers better understand disease, develop more resilient crops and respond to environmental change by making large-scale sequencing faster and more affordable.

Led by Professor David Lynn, the highly automated lab will deliver one of the highest-throughput and lowest-cost genomics capabilities in the Southern Hemisphere, with the capacity to sequence up to 59,000 complete human genomes each year.

This transformative investment in South Australia's scientific capability will help researchers turn discoveries into real-world benefits for patients, farmers, industries and communities.

The facility is being established by Flinders University in partnership with the South Australian Genomics Centre (SAGC), Bioplatforms Australia and Decode Science.

It will operate as a national research resource for universities and research institutes, hosted by the Flinders Health and Medical Research Institute within Flinders University's Health and Medical Research Building.

To showcase its capability, the facility will run a national competition offering eligible Australian universities and research institutes free sequencing of a total of 5,000 human genomes.

A career in public life – as a public servant, in parliament and now as an educator – has defined the commitment of former South Australian Deputy Premier Dr Susan Close.

Awarded our 2026 Distinguished Alumni Award, Dr Close says her interests in public policy took shape during her student years at Flinders University – which she jokingly refers to as, “the family firm”. Her parents moved from Oxford to help establish Flinders, with her father David Close teaching History and her mother, Elizabeth Close, a French scholar.

Australians from across the nation helped identify the challenges that matter most to them in their communities through the Flinders Wicked Problems Report.

Those insights are now driving six new PhD projects focused on tackling those issues from housing insecurity, healthcare access, community resilience and other complex issues.

“The Wicked Problems Report began with a simple but important commitment: to listen to Australians and understand the challenges that matter most to them,” Professor Raymond Chan, the Deputy Vice-Chancellor (Research) said.

Now, the broader communications model for the Report has been recognised nationally, with the initiative receiving the 2026 Future Campus Award for Best Tertiary Education Communication Campaign.

The communications campaign created a new framework for connecting research with the concerns of the wider community.

At a time when public trust and engagement matter more than ever, the Flinders Wicked Problems report has helped position research not as something happening on the sidelines, but as a critical part of addressing the challenges facing the nation.
