Summary
Enhanced genetic analysis facilities at James Cook University. The acquisition of molecular data, DNA sequences or allele frequencies, is the major requirement of almost all laboratory research in the life sciences, and is the rate-limiting step for many research projects locally. The current application underpins novel research initiatives at James Cook University, and is intended to provide centralized state-of-the-art high throughput DNA sequencing and genotyping facility for the north Queens ....Enhanced genetic analysis facilities at James Cook University.

Summary
Developmental Imaging Facility. This application seeks to establish a facility to undertake expression profiling in vertebrate tissues on a genomic scale and at the highest resolution. Undertaking large scale projects of this nature requires specialised robotics and dedicated infrastructure for microscopy and tissue preparation. This facility will be the first of its type in Australia will permit researchers to perform genomic scale in situ screens, many as part of large international initiative ....Developmental Imaging Facility. This application seeks to establish a facility to undertake expression profiling in vertebrate tissues on a genomic scale and at the highest resolution. Undertaking large scale projects of this nature requires specialised robotics and dedicated infrastructure for microscopy and tissue preparation. This facility will be the first of its type in Australia will permit researchers to perform genomic scale in situ screens, many as part of large international initiatives in developmental and cellular biology. This large-scale, high-resolution expression profiling infrastructure is required to maintain international competitiveness and will dramatically improve our gene discovery, functional assessment and understanding of vertebrate development.Read moreRead less

Functional Genomics - Linking Genomics and Proteomics. This application is to enhance the capacity of the Ramaciotti Centre for Gene Function Analaysis (RCFGA) and its Nodes to support research in Functional Genomics by expanding its ability to link genomic analysis (including transcriptomics) with proteomic and cell biological analysis. It will provide access to novel methods for analysing interactions of proteins with other molecules by enabling the manufacture of protein arrays as well as DN ....Functional Genomics - Linking Genomics and Proteomics. This application is to enhance the capacity of the Ramaciotti Centre for Gene Function Analaysis (RCFGA) and its Nodes to support research in Functional Genomics by expanding its ability to link genomic analysis (including transcriptomics) with proteomic and cell biological analysis. It will provide access to novel methods for analysing interactions of proteins with other molecules by enabling the manufacture of protein arrays as well as DNA microarrays and to analyse the data obtained from them. This is a vital component to maintain gene function analysis at the cutting edge of current technology.Read moreRead less

The aim of this project is to establish the nodes of the Clive and Vera Ramaciotti Centre for Gene Function Analysis (CVRCGFA) which is a joint venture that serves the five major universities and three Institutes in the Sydney-Newcastle region. The primary focus of this application is to create new facilities at the hubs of CVRCFGA that are integral to the analysis of molecular variation in a range of organisms. The study of molecular variation will enable researchers to understand better how organisms interact with each other, how they respond to environmental stress and aid in the identification of complez traits.Read moreRead less

Summary
High Resolution Cellular and Molecular Imaging System. Understanding where molecules are within cells, and how they interact with each other, is fundamental to significant advances being made in biology. Our research will use advanced imaging techniques to localize proteins within a variety of cells including neurons and germ cells. We will be able to determine how the different molecules within a single cell interact with each other. This information is relevant to many biological mechanisms ....High Resolution Cellular and Molecular Imaging System. Understanding where molecules are within cells, and how they interact with each other, is fundamental to significant advances being made in biology. Our research will use advanced imaging techniques to localize proteins within a variety of cells including neurons and germ cells. We will be able to determine how the different molecules within a single cell interact with each other. This information is relevant to many biological mechanisms and to many human diseases. Furthermore, our research will help maintain Australia's strong international reputation in the fields of neuroscience, protein trafficking and stem cells. Read moreRead less
