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.

Proteomics And Confocal Endomicroscopy In The Evaluation Of Inflammatory Bowel Diseases.

Funding Amount

Summary
Inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD) result in devastating consequences and affect more young Australians than epilepsy or road traffic accidents. Damaged bowel results in loss of the normal gut barrier and flora can enter the tissue and even the blood. This concept of the "leaky gut" has been previously difficult to demonstrate. This can now be seen and measured using two new technologies called proteomics and confocal endomicroscopy. These tests offer new avenues of research for the 61,000 Austra ....Inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD) result in devastating consequences and affect more young Australians than epilepsy or road traffic accidents.

Funding Amount
$415,218.00
Summary
The global impact of hepatitis B and hepatitis C has recently been recognized by the World Health Organization. The Fellowship will support a research program that will use new technologies to answer a number of important questions concerning the pathogenesis of viral hepatitis B and C, interferon treatment response for HCV, and antiviral drug resistance. The outcomes of the research will be timely, clinically relevant, and of great interest to the international community. The ultimate goal is t ....The global impact of hepatitis B and hepatitis C has recently been recognized by the World Health Organization.

Neuroimmune Interactions In Functional And Organic Gastrointestinal Diseases

Funding Amount

Summary
Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS) and Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD) are chronic, incurable diseases of the lower gastrointestinal tract with unknown causes and poor treatment options. Both the immune and nervous systems are altered in GI disease, but have traditionally been studied in isolation. My research investigates how the neuro-immune axis is altered in these diseases, using animal models and human tissue samples to identify novel treatment options for these debilitating diseases.
