معرفی
Prof Simon Moulton is a Professor of Biomedical Electromaterials Science at Swinburne University of Technology's School of Engineering. His research focuses on the intersection of chemical/materials engineering and medicine, emphasizing end-user-driven design. He has led teams in attracting over $30 million in research funding from ARC, MRFF, and the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation. His work has spun out one company and resulted in high-impact publications in journals like Advanced Materials and Biomaterials.
Education: PhD (2002, University of Wollongong), Bachelor of Science (Honours) and Bachelor of Technology in Environmental Geochemistry. Awards include the ARC Queen Elizabeth II Fellowship (2009) and Swinburne's Research Excellence Awards.
Research interests include biomaterials for medical solutions, 3D printing, graphene-based materials, and collaborations with medical institutions like St Vincent’s Hospital and Baker Institute. Current projects address drug delivery for epilepsy, cancer, and tissue engineering, alongside electrode-cellular interface platforms for nerve, muscle, and cartilage regeneration.
Publications span biomaterials, nanotechnology, and biomedical devices. Recent work includes anti-fouling biosensors, supercapacitor materials, and hydrogel-based drug delivery. His teams (6 PhD students, 2 postdoctoral fellows) advance technologies for clinical applications.
Grants include the ARC Training Centre for Bioreactor systems and partnerships with industry (e.g., Cytomatrix Limited). Collaborations with hospitals and research institutes drive translational research in cartilage regeneration, neural interfaces, and antimicrobial materials.
