Inaugural Crawford-Nishi Lecture on Japan and Australia: A Vision for the Future
The Minister for Foreign Affairs discusses where the Australian Government is taking a relationship that Prime Minister Aso recently described as having reached the most productive time in its history. Particularly focussing on:
quick, coordinated action through the G20 to get the global economy working again
enhancing our already close economic relationship through the early conclusion of a comprehensive free trade agreement
turning our bilateral defence cooperation to efforts to improve
The Global Migration of Skill
This lecture examined the growing phenomenon of international skilled migration with particular attention to its impact on developing countries. A framework was developed for understanding the different measures of ‘brain drain' and how they are related to wage and income differences across countries around the world. Based on new data sources, differences in the prices of skill across countries were estimated and were used to explore how skill price differentials affect the magnitud
China and the West in the 21st Century
China’s phenomenal economic growth is paralleled in scale and speed
only by the rise of the United States between the Civil War and the
First World War in 1914. Since 1978 the economy has grown ninefold, and
is set to become the second largest within a decade. From inauspicious
beginnings, China has become a $2 trillion economy because the
Communist Party has channelled huge savings into investment, and
encouraged millions of workers into its booming cities, the biggest
migration in histor
Immunity & Altered Self - The Struggle Between Our Self, Our Genome Sequence & Our Microbes
World Day of Immunology 2008 Public Lecture
What defines us as individuals? What makes us both similar and different to other individuals, other species?
These are great philosophical questions throughout the history of human
thought, they are a source of angst in teenagers, and they are
fundamental issues in medicine. In this lecture Professor Goodnow
explores these questions from the perspective of our immune system,
whose raison d’etre is to distinguish our self from the legions of
viru
Rising to Global Power How Australia could supply the whole world's energy needs
In this exciting presentation, he examines the question of how – by expanding our vision to consider energy supply on a massive scale – an Australian collaboration between electrical engineers, economists and chemical engineers could potentially power the entire world.
The social in social science
In a complex and rapidly changing world, social scientific study examines how we produce things, communicate, govern ourselves, understand our environments, and how to solve the problems we face in the organisation of social relations and processes. This unit provides a basic overview of how social science contains deeply embedded cultural assumptions and outlines the important relationship between philosophical thinking and practical research methods in social sciences.
3.5 Scattering from finite square wells and barriers
Scattering is fundamental to almost everything we know about the world, such as why the sky is blue. Tunnelling is entirely quantum-mechanical and gives rise to such phenomena as nuclear fusion in stars. Examples and applications of both these fascinating concepts are investigated in this unit.
3.3 Scattering from a finite square step
Scattering is fundamental to almost everything we know about the world, such as why the sky is blue. Tunnelling is entirely quantum-mechanical and gives rise to such phenomena as nuclear fusion in stars. Examples and applications of both these fascinating concepts are investigated in this unit.

Scientists throughout the world are increasingly interested in the relationship between science and society. Part of their concern is with the social responsibilities scientists have in relation to broader public interests. That raises important issues to do with the ethical and social dimension of scientists' work and how scientists explain – and perhaps justify – their work to the wider public.
