The smart country? The lucky country? Want Australia to take on big problems or find out basic information about questions that researchers have? Well we're not funding it in this country. @JasonClareMP what's the plan to make us competitive on the world stage?

Today Academy President Prof Chennupati Jagadish AC spoke with @PatsKarvelas about the 14-year ⬇️ trend in national R&D investment. Australia is well below the @OECD average (21st) and if this trend continues, within 5 years we'll rank among the lowest of all OECD countries. Listen: https://t.co/soH7NjiXeW
