FeBI is proud to lead this collaborative project, in partnership with First Nations community leaders & service providers including Sunrise Health Service Aboriginal Corporation, & Dijan Training Program, leading universities & research institutes (the University of Melbourne & The Florey Institute), and product development specialists, Planet Innovation.

Following a successful CTCP Stage 1 feasibility project, we’re now working to develop an integrated FeBI prototype to benchmark our quantum sensing measure against existing clinical iron tests. This work will run in parallel to our efforts at increasing access and engagement with First Nations communities & health service providers, culminating with a demonstration of FeBI’s prototype & opportunities for Aboriginal Health Practitioners (AHPs) to receive training in our quantum sensing technology.

With funding from the Australian Government’s Department of Industry, Science and Resources, this work will allow us to incorporate feedback from First Nations service providers & health practitioners as we continue to develop & refine our quantum solution. By focusing on real-world utility, we hope to develop FeBI into a clinically meaningful diagnostic tool capable of operating in even the most remote health centres. Delivering real results where they’re needed most.
