Unlocking the benefits of scientific discovery through collaboration
Griffith Sciences pursues expansive research from marine science, human origins and quantum physics to clean energy, biodiversity, AI and drug discovery. We’re home to world-class institutes and highly-respected experts who are advancing their specialist fields with new discoveries and scientific knowledge. But our discoveries offer little benefit if they remain locked inside journals. Our strength is in our ability to collaborate across all levels of industry and government to transform our discoveries into solutions.
