Cauliflower leaves could be your next source of gains! 💪

Cauliflower leaves are abundant but often discarded during processing, despite containing protein and dietary fibre. An RMIT innovation uses ultrasound to extract leaf protein from discarded cauliflower leaves, identifying a potential new use for vegetable scraps.
 
The early-stage research found that high-power ultrasound increased dry matter yield and improved protein recovery from the leaves, while different processing settings changed the final concentrate’s particle size, colour, solubility and structure.
 
The resulting leaf protein concentrate could have future food and animal feed applications.

RMIT and Scape Student Living are pleased to announce a landmark development above the State Library Station backed by a combined commitment of more than $270 million.

One of the university’s most significant investments in Melbourne, the State Library Exchange will be a 57-storey flagship development positioned directly above the new station.

It will bring together learning, teaching, research, industry engagement and student accommodation in one purpose-built space in the heart of the city.

This IVF innovation could eliminate the need for invasive injections during IVF treatment. 💉

For people affected by infertility, IVF can be physically and emotionally demanding with some patients requiring more than 500 injections throughout their treatment journey.

We're thrilled to partner with GonGlobal to develop OVULAIR™, an inhaled drug delivery system designed to deliver in vitro fertilisation medicines through the lungs rather than via injection.

Wearable devices with the ability to discreetly take images and videos are becoming cheaper and more common. So should we be worried about what can be done with secretly recorded content? 📹🕵🏻‍♂️

Dr Dana McKay (Dana M), Associate Dean Interaction, Technology & Information says the tech is likely to increase the amount of highly emotive, untrustworthy content online which will both enrage people and reduce already declining trust in online information. 🛜

Nanotechnology is probably not what you think. 
 
Pop culture often depicts nanotech either destroying the world or saving it, but in real life, nanotech and nanomaterials are already useful in practical ways. One area that material scientists and engineers like Dr Lei Bao are focused on, is how nanomaterials can be used to improve different aspects of health treatment, from wound care to cancer therapeutics.
 
Dr Lei Bao’s focus is carbon dots, a tiny material made out of carbon that can display many different properties useful for things like telling us what’s going on inside a cell, helping wounds heal, and potentially targeting cancer cells, opening up new possible avenues for cancer treatment.

This new wastewater treatment material rapidly removes micro and nano plastics, and even some PFAS.

The invention, a dark adsorbent material that can be added to wastewater and separated with a magnet, builds on the team's 2022 breakthrough, extending performance to much smaller particles and more complex wastewater.

In lab testing, the material removed more than 95 per cent of micro‑ and nano‑plastics, including particles as small as 30 nanometres, within one hour. The material also removed more than 95 per cent of tested contaminants including mercury, chromium, copper, dyes and ibuprofen.
