Top 5 Research Achievements
- The UofA's AI technology, based on computer vision and machine learning, is a leader in the world for space application such as space junk pose estimation. The work also includes developing robotic manipulation technology to acquire space debris once located.
- The UofA leads research into a new plasma-based, space-ready process for the production of agriculture fertiliser. The process will help space travellers to grow their own food.
- The largest study into meningococcal B vaccination and herd immunity conducted by UofA has global importance for vaccination programs and policy.
- The UofA is developing new tools and strategies to help grape growers and winemakers avoid, or mitigate smoke taint which is highly relevant due to the increased risk of bushfires expected to increase with climate change.
- The UofA has lead collaborative efforts with the Kaurna Australian Aboriginal people to successfully revive their language. The Kaurna language - unheard for nearly 160 years - is now back in daily use.

Project Description: | Consumer financial decision-making is an area of growing academic and policy relevance, given the increasing self-responsibility for making consequential financial decisions affecting consumers’ immediate and future financial well-being. Unfortunately, many consumers seem either ill-prepared or unable to take on increased financial responsibility. Consumers’ financial decisions can be better understood by examining their psychological characteristics, such as susceptibility to interpersonal influence, risk aversion, consideration of future consequences, or money attitudes. Accordingly, there is an increasing research tradition in marketing and consumer behaviour looking at how to reduce consumers’ financial vulnerability and improve their financial outcomes, taking into account their psychological characteristics. |
