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.

Do pancreatic stellate cells play a role in pancreatic exocrine secretion? 3 major national benefits: 1)Alignment with research priority goals of preventative health care and ageing well ageing productively. Elucidation of mechanisms of action of CCK and the interaction of PSCs and acinar cells in mediating pancreatic secretion will help refine our approach to the prevention and treatment of disorders related to the above processes viz. maldigestion, malabsorption, obesity and pancreatic cancer. ....Do pancreatic stellate cells play a role in pancreatic exocrine secretion? 3 major national benefits: 1)Alignment with research priority goals of preventative health care and ageing well ageing productively.

Gastrointestinal parasites and their diagnosis. Gastrointestinal disease such as diarrhoea, abdominal pain and irritable bowel syndrome are common in the Australian population and there are a wide variety of causes, including potentially parasites. The parasite Dientamoeba fragilis has, until recently, been overlooked as a cause of human disease, but recent studies have confirmed its role as a pathogen. This project seeks to improve the diagnosis of this organism in faeces and this development ....Gastrointestinal parasites and their diagnosis.

The parasite Dientamoeba fragilis has, until recently, been overlooked as a cause of human disease, but recent studies have confirmed its role as a pathogen. This project seeks to improve the diagnosis of this organism in faeces and this development will allow effective treatment to be used in patients thereby ameliorating disease.Read moreRead less
