Located in the heart of Sydney’s innovation precinct, the South Eveleigh Biomedical Building is a cutting-edge research hub where the Sydney Institute of Agriculture collaborates across disciplines to address global challenges in food, health, and sustainability. The facility has state-of-the-art laboratories to support teaching and research.
The big issues facing the world today – building sustainable food, water and energy supplies – will not be solved by single-focus, reductionist approaches. We need a multidisciplinary approach, in which various environmental and related specialisations can be integrated in collaborative projects that aim to find solutions to secure a sustainable future.
Combining their respective expertise, our researchers have formed the groups that create the core research capability of our Camden Facility, based in the Centre for Carbon, Water and Food. It’s an approach that positions us to deliver faster, deeper and more meaningful research outcomes.
Research conducted at the Plant Breeding Institute (PBI) concentrates on plant production, plant breeding and related areas. We have a suite of analytical instruments available to students and researchers for isotopic, elemental and organic compound analysis. The instruments are located at the Centre for Carbon, Water and Food and include:
The Faculty of Science operates a diverse network of farms across New South Wales, serving as vital hubs for agricultural research, education, and industry collaboration.
