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.

NOVEL SOLUTIONS FOR ANTIMICROBIAL RESISTANT PATHOGENS
Funder
National Health and Medical Research Council
Funding Amount
$474,513.00
Summary
Antibiotic resistance and infections caused by superbugs are major public health concerns. My fellowship aims to develop new strategies to prevent and treat infections caused by resistant superbugs. I will use innovative approaches both in the laboratory and in the hospital setting, and foster research across multiple groups, to solve “real-life” clinical problems. The proposed work will improve the outcomes for the most vulnerable hospitalised patients.
Critical Infection: Ecological Solutions To Antibiotic Resistance
Funder
National Health and Medical Research Council
Funding Amount
$561,362.00
Summary
The applicant will apply new types of microbial data and diagnostic tools to early interventions in the critically ill and directly test their impact on clinical outcomes. He will also introduce novel therapies to restore antibiotic susceptibility to enteric bacteria and examine the clinical and microbiological effects of antibiotic decontamination of the critically ill in newly funded project grants. Overlapping research themes all link directly to his clinical and professional roles.
Improving Prevention, Tracking And Treatment Of Major Human Bacterial Pathogens
Funder
National Health and Medical Research Council
Funding Amount
$467,961.00
Summary
This research fellowship will lead to a detailed understanding of the mechanisms by which bacteria become resistant to antibiotics and cause diseases, how bacterial pathogens evolve and spread in the Australian community, and will result in new understanding of the optimal treatment of bacterial diseases and identification of compounds for new antibiotic development.
