As the global COVID-19 pandemic escalates, the NSW Smart Sensing Network (NSSN) aims to acknowledge the “mayhem” and let the general public know that universities and thought leaders are working on delivering solutions across a complexity of layers. As a consortium of the leading universities in NSW, the NSSN is well-placed to inform society of the research and development that is taking place in NSW that is contributing to the wellbeing and health of the public in these confusing times.
