Deakin Ph.D. researcher, Agnes Mukurumbira, is pioneering a transformative study that could redefine how we envision the sustainability of future food packaging.

At the heart of her research is the development of a prototype that serves as more than just antimicrobial packaging.

It actively combats the bacteria and fungi that compromise food quality

The implications of her current research at Deakin are profound.

The culmination of Ms. Mukurumbira's dedication was her recent victory in Deakin’s Three Minute Thesis (3MT®) competition.
