In this presentation I'll tell the story of my Australian academic journey. I'll explain how nanotechnology research led me to build systems for hyperpolarized MRI and then MRI-guided radiotherapy, with brief detour to ultralow field. In sharing my journey, I will be aiming to impart what I've learnt about building a research team and finding the funding to pursue a research career in MR since getting my PhD in 2018. I will also give background on what's different about doing research in Australia (postdocs are really well paid!) for those who might be considering a move down under.
