In this episode of Impact at UTS, you’ll hear about technology that changes the way we detect traces of criminals at crime scenes, discover how robots are revolutionising the Sydney Harbour Bridge and learn about UTS research that’s providing safe drinking water to hundreds of children in Vietnam. 

Three Distinguished Professors at UTS, each from a different area in STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Mathematics), discuss their game changing technology that was only made possible through end-user engagement and collaboration with communities and industry partners.

• Distinguished Professor Claude Roux, Director of the Centre for Forensic Science
