Research & Collaboration Highlights

By Joseph Zammit on September 15th, 2025

As a follow-up to my recent post, I’d like to share some of the outcomes of my secondment to Deakin University under the Horizon Europe SME 5.0 project:
Research
Together with Prof. Chang-Tsun Li, we began drafting a joint publication on the topic of cybersecurity challenges in Mixed Reality (MR) immersive training environments. The work explores how secure, sustainable, and human-centred MR training platforms can be implemented in academic and industrial contexts.
Collaboration
During my stay, I also engaged in a series of workshops and meetings with colleagues from the School of IT and the Faculty of Science, Engineering and Built Environment. These discussions opened up avenues for future cooperation in:
• Curriculum development
• Knowledge exchange
• Joint research and teaching opportunities
A special thanks to Prof. Chang-Tsun Li, Dr Adnan Anwar, Dr Je Sen Teh, and Dr Sophie McKenzie for their generous time, insightful discussions, and warm hospitality.
Looking forward to building on this collaboration in the future!
