2032 Brisbane Olympic Games: how can we achieve climate-positive urban objectives?
Brisbane is the first host city to be contractually bound to deliver a climate-positive Olympic Games in 2032 (Queensland Government, 2023). Most of the 8,000-megawatt coal plants are expected to close by 2032, which requires a viable and sustainable transition to renewable energies (Simshauser, 2024).In this project, we investigate how digital energy services and analytics (DESA) can help a sustainable energy transition for a climate-positive 2032 Brisbane Olympic Games.ReferencesQueensland Government.

Advanced artificial intelligence based ultrasound imaging applications
Our research in the space of advanced quantitative medical imaging is investigating how to use ultrasound as a real time volumetric mapping tool of human tissues, to guide in a reliable and accurate way complex medical procedures1. We have developed several novel methods which make use of the most cutting-edge artificial intelligence technology2. For example, to show where the treatment target and the organs at risk are at all times during treatments in radiation therapy3, 4; or to inform robots …

Bio-based Olympics for Brisbane 2032: what would a carbon-neutral Olympics look like?
The aim of this project is to investigate how bio-based products (i.e. next generation materials made from biomass rather than fossil fuels) could be incorporated into the energy, transport, consumables and infrastructure used for the Brisbane Olympic Games 2032.The Olympic Games in 10 years will be the opportunity to promote Queensland’s capacity for bio-based manufacturing. Manufacturing bio-fuels, bio-plastics, bio-materials, bio-chemicals from biomass (residues and wastes from agriculture, forestry, and food waste etc.) is an important part of decarbonising the economy …
