The Queensland Decarbonisation Knowledge Translation Hub Collaborative Research Agreement
Under a Grant agreement between UQ and the Queensland Government, the Queensland Government is establishing a 3 year approach to developing stronger relationships with Queensland Universities to progress decarbonisation of the State’s economy. This sub-agreement underpins JCU contribution in demonstrating that the parties wish to work together in The Queensland Decarbonisation Knowledge Translation Hub (Hub) and engage with each other on various research Projects from time to time relating.
Artificial intelligence-guided detection of tumour peptides for immunotherapy against therap y-resistant cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma (CSCC)
North Queensland has the highest incidence of CSCC worldwide, which has a huge impact on the local population. With a high tumour mutational burden, CSCC is responsive to immunotherapy, however therapy-resistant CSCC presents a significant challenge. This project aims to detect and select tumour-specific peptides for immunotherapy in patients with therapy-resistant CSCC. The focus on tumour-specific peptides aims to ensure that these peptides are unique to tumour cells, thereby minimising the risk of triggering autoimmunity in treated patients. This innovative approach seeks to enhance the precision and safety of immunotherapies by targeting tumour-specific antigens.
How magnetic resonance impacts on immune regulatory factor secretion from brain tumour cells during radiotherapy
AIMS AND OBJECTIVES 1. To investigate how magnetic resonance impacts on brain tumour cell growth and immune regulatory factor secretion from brain tumour cells during radiotherapy 2. To identify and quantify specific immune regulatory factors which are observed during irradiation within a magnetic field.
Closing the circular food economy: Advanced technologies to optimise black soldier fly (BSF) larvae nutritional composition for inclusion in aquafeed
Black soldier fly (BSF) biomass is a highly valuable source of nutrients for terrestrial and aquatic animals and has shown to include health promoting compounds that enhances animal production. However, the quality and composition of BSF biomass depends on numerous factors including the BSF stocks, rearing conditions including waste stream diets, post-harvest processing methods and storage conditions. To-date, there is currently little information available on the optimum post-harvest processing technologies and real-time on farm monitoring systems to maximise black soldier fly protein profiles for inclusion in aquafeeds. The objective of this study is to generate on-farm data to improve the nutritional profile of BSF larvae for their application as a substitute component in aquafeed. To achieve this aim, three main studies will be conducted, the first one will focus on generating optimum BSF larvae nutritional data through post-harvest technologies to enhancing BSF larvae composition for aquafeed, the second will focus on the development of a rapid digital diagnostic NIR tool for the real-time evaluation of organic waste streams and BSF larvae composition, and the final study will generate critical data on the effects of feeding BSF larvae on growth performance, gut health and product quality of black tiger marine shrimp.

Geodynamic Andes eXploration Initiative (GAXI)
The project is aimed to advance understanding of the spatial and temporal distribution and genesis of Cu-Mo-Au/Au-Cu and Au-Ag mineral systems and the potential for other associated critical minerals and their exploration targeting along the western margin of South America. The project’s South America focus region provides exceptional opportunities to drive new greenfield ore discoveries. The project is designed to enhance the overall discovery potential of western South American margin and unlock new prospective areas for diverse commodities and deposit types and reduce search space through increased predictive power and effectiveness in ongoing exploration programs.
