Congratulations to our Hub Chief Investigator, Scientia Professor Justin Gooding. Today, the Australian Academy of Science recognises him for his outstanding contributions to science, awarding him the highly prestigious honorific award, the 2024 David Craig Medal and Lecture.

Watch Justin’s personalised video profile:

Scientia Professor Justin Gooding is an international leader in the field of surface chemistry; in particular, he is renowned as a leading authority in the modification of surfaces for the development of better sensing devices. Characterised by using molecular to nanoscale control, his science systematically addresses fundamental questions in electrochemistry and biology, as well as general challenges facing many sensors and analytical devices. He has made outstanding contributions to fundamental and applied research using self-assembled monolayers to fabricate molecular scale constructs on surfaces that provided new measurement tools. Professor Gooding’s work has shown not only how to design and fabricate sophisticated surface architecture for sensing, but he has also changed thinking on both the level of control that is possible and the types of information that can be acquired using that control.
