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.

Summary
The focus of the Partnership Centre on Systems Perspectives on Preventing Lifestyle-Related Chronic Health Problems (the Prevention Partnership Centre) will be the inter-relation of health and non-health systems with regard to primary prevention and chronic health problems. Day-to-day, the Prevention Partnership Centre will concentrate on the range of programs, policies, funding structures, data systems, workforce capacities, evidence gaps, implementation experiences, collaborations, accountabil ....The focus of the Partnership Centre on Systems Perspectives on Preventing Lifestyle-Related Chronic Health Problems (the Prevention Partnership Centre) will be the inter-relation of health and non-health systems with regard to primary prevention and chronic health problems. Day-to-day, the Prevention Partnership Centre will concentrate on the range of programs, policies, funding structures, data systems, workforce capacities, evidence gaps, implementation experiences, collaborations, accountability mechanisms and even the language of prevention itself, that make it easier or harder to support healthy lifestyle choices and promote health equity. It will undertake an integrated program of work designed to enable policy and program developers to make better decisions about the strategies and structures to prevent lifestyle-related chronic conditions in Australia.Read moreRead less
Partnership Centre: Dealing With Cognitive And Related Functional Decline In Older People
Funder
National Health and Medical Research Council
Funding Amount
$12,500,000.00
Summary
The focus of this Partnership Centre is how to better apply our existing knowledge and how to create new knowledge that will directly improve support to those elderly suffering from cognitive decline, their carer’s (formal and informal) and the various agencies delivering services for them. This Partnership Centre’s Investigator Team will engage in a range of activities to improve aged care service planning (including continuity of care and risk assessments of community care); develop and implem ....The focus of this Partnership Centre is how to better apply our existing knowledge and how to create new knowledge that will directly improve support to those elderly suffering from cognitive decline, their carer’s (formal and informal) and the various agencies delivering services for them. This Partnership Centre’s Investigator Team will engage in a range of activities to improve aged care service planning (including continuity of care and risk assessments of community care); develop and implement new approaches to support informal carer’s; reduce stigma around cognitive decline in both the health care and community context; improve the size and quality of the aged care workforce; assist with decision making, rights, citizenship and related ethics through education; improve aged care regulation; promote responsible medication management; develop and disseminate up-to-date clinical guidelines; and implement proven models of care.Read moreRead less
The Chief Investigators have worked as a team for 20 years as part of a successful NHMRC Program Grant that was renewed on three successive occasions and subsequently under a NHMRC Block Grant to QIMR. Their combined expertise covers the whole spectrum from the bedside to the bench with respect to clinical studies and fundamental molecular studies of iron homeostasis. The common theme of iron homeostasis and iron overload pervades virtually all the research of the team.

Their combined expertise covers the whole spectrum from the bedside to the bench with respect to clinical studies and fundamental molecular studies of iron homeostasis. The common theme of iron homeostasis and iron overload pervades virtually all the research of the team. The team�s research has led to fundamental observations of iron regulation and homeostasis and the development of guidelines for the management of, and screening for, haemochromatosis, recognized as the most common inherited disorder of Caucasian populations. The proposed research encompasses molecular studies aimed at deciphering the mechanisms of iron absorption and transport; how these processes are regulated; and clinical studies on patients diagnosed with haemochromatosis. The findings are particularly pertinent to the diagnosis, management and prevention of clinical haemochromatosis.Read moreRead less
