The Australian Research Data Commons (ARDC) invites you to participate in a short survey about your
interaction with the ARDC and use of our national research infrastructure and services. The survey will take
approximately 5 minutes and is anonymous. It’s open to anyone who uses our digital research infrastructure
services including Reasearch Link Australia.
We will use the information you provide to improve the national research infrastructure and services we
deliver and to report on user satisfaction to the Australian Government’s National Collaborative Research
Infrastructure Strategy (NCRIS) program.
Please take a few minutes to provide your input. The survey closes COB Friday 29 May 2026.

Identification of novel biomarkers in tears for prostate cancer diagnosis and prognosis. The purpose of this study is to identify novel biomarkers in the tears of patients with CaP. The use of the several techniques will increase the chance of success and enable us to find more diagnostic markers. If successful, the identified proteins may be used to diagnose and determine the stage of cancer. This will help guide clinicians in choosing the best treatment methods for an individual patient. The m ....Identification of novel biomarkers in tears for prostate cancer diagnosis and prognosis. The purpose of this study is to identify novel biomarkers in the tears of patients with CaP. The use of the several techniques will increase the chance of success and enable us to find more diagnostic markers. If successful, the identified proteins may be used to diagnose and determine the stage of cancer. This will help guide clinicians in choosing the best treatment methods for an individual patient. The markers may also be used to monitor the disease progress and the effects of treatment. The results from this study may improve the prognosis of CaP patients.Read moreRead less
The MIA mitochondrial import pathway: structure and function. Our aging population is increasingly susceptible to mitochondrial disease and Australia is vulnerable to the associated economic and social burden. This research will benefit Australia by contributing to a knowledge-based economy; identifying new pathways that can be targeted for therapeutic intervention; developing smarter and faster hybrid approaches that strengthen Australia's basic and strategic research capability; and forging ne ....The MIA mitochondrial import pathway: structure and function. Our aging population is increasingly susceptible to mitochondrial disease and Australia is vulnerable to the associated economic and social burden. This research will benefit Australia by contributing to a knowledge-based economy; identifying new pathways that can be targeted for therapeutic intervention; developing smarter and faster hybrid approaches that strengthen Australia's basic and strategic research capability; and forging new international links. In the future, this research will lead to new collaborations between academia and industry and the discovery of potential new drugs that would benefit the health of Australians, benefit the economy of our healthcare system and provide potential economic benefits through royalty streams.Read moreRead less
A novel role for SMG-1 protein kinase in stress granule formation and the stress response. Humans are constantly exposed to agents in the environment that threaten the integrity of their cells and increases the risk of cancer and other pathologies. Cells have developed repair mechanisms to cope with damage to their DNA and avoid long term effects. The emphasis in this application is to investigate the mechanisms by which stress affects the transcriptional machinery in the cell. A description of ....A novel role for SMG-1 protein kinase in stress granule formation and the stress response. Humans are constantly exposed to agents in the environment that threaten the integrity of their cells and increases the risk of cancer and other pathologies. Cells have developed repair mechanisms to cope with damage to their DNA and avoid long term effects. The emphasis in this application is to investigate the mechanisms by which stress affects the transcriptional machinery in the cell. A description of the processes involved will assist in understanding how specific disease states arise and will provide a means of devising compounds/drugs to assist the response to stress.
