The University of Queensland has strengthened ties with the Danish research institute that laid the foundations of modern physics.
UQ and the Niels Bohr Institute at the University of Copenhagen have established the Virtual Institute for Physics to promote education and applied fundamental research to further our understanding of the universe.
Founded by Niels Bohr, who won the Nobel Prize in 1922 for his pioneering model of the atom, the Institute has produced at least four Nobel laureates.
