报告摘要：Current CSIRO fibre and textile research is based in Geelong, where we are now located on the Deakin University campus. My talk provides an introduction to CSIRO as a government R&D institution to support Australian industries. Interviews the transition of our textiles and fibres capability from wool into new areas, and outlines the current focus and achievements of our R&D projects. CSIRO is interested in establishing new partnerships and collaborations with overseas institutions working in textiles and fibres, in particular in China, which dominates global manufacturing.
