Making real progress
COVID-19 control rests with human behaviour, at least until a vaccine arrives
As the world awaits a COVID-19 vaccine and confirmed cases exceed 30M, QUT behavioural researchers say the key to containment rests in understanding human behaviour and how our personalities may influence better cooperative behaviour for the global good.
“Nano-pillared” surface traps and kills COVID-19
QUT scientists have developed a way to kill COVID-19 virus on aluminium surfaces with a wet-etching technique that forms random ‘nano-pillars’ like miniscule spears, proven to have both antiviral and antibacterial properties.
Why QUT
Our research is focused on progress, pushing the boundaries and developing new ideas through transdisciplinary thinking.
Our facilities
We're committed to providing high quality infrastructure, professional support and facilities for our researchers.
