Science knows no borders.
00:02
Right now, Australia is opening its doors
00:05
to the brightest minds to shape discoveries
00:08
that matter to all of us.
00:09
We didn't know much about the research environment
00:11
in Australia.
00:12
As it turned out, Monash had very little
00:14
in my area of research in quantum condensed matter physics.
00:17
But the facilities in Australia were absolutely excellent,
00:21
better lab space than I had at University of Maryland,
00:24
really world class.
00:25
It was an opportunity to start something new.
00:28
We're partnering with government, business, philanthropy,
00:32
and the research sector to create pathways
00:35
where extraordinary talent can thrive.
00:37
On my first trip to Australia,
00:39
we went out to the Parkes telescope.
00:41
You're in control of this most powerful radio telescope
00:44
in the Southern Hemisphere.
00:45
And you're pointing it at the one thing
00:47
that you want to look at.
00:49
You feel the telescope moving.
00:51
It's a full body experience.
00:53
Australia's an exciting place to do science.
00:55
Australia, where science lives.
