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.

The photonic immunochip: retrieving individual Enzyme-linked Immuno Sorbent Assay (ELISA) array-units using optical waveguide multicolour fluorescence. Improving the sensitivity and availability of in-vitro immuno-diagnostic tests is a critical goal towards developing real time efficient tools for the detection of infectious diseases, cancers, allergies and auto-immune diseases.

Improving the sensitivity and availability of in-vitro immuno-diagnostic tests is a critical goal towards developing real time efficient tools for the detection of infectious diseases, cancers, allergies and auto-immune diseases. The goal is to increase the sensitivity of these tests by reducing background noise that has been a feature of the commonly used ELISA technology. This will be achieved by developing a novel optical integrated waveguide array supporting a large range of distributed tests, including several based on a novel multi-colour detection scheme. This massively parallel approach will underpin a new generation of low-cost, efficient diagnostic tests.Read moreRead less
Control of Protein Attachment and its Optical Detection. Protein array technologies have applications in the rapid diagnosis of disease. Biosensors can detect traces of biohazards. Before widespread implementation of these technologies can occur however, a rapid, sensitive and convenient readout method for the control and readout of attachment of proteins to antibodies is needed. I will use electric fields, combined with array imaging at surface plasmon resonance to achieve this aim. This protei ....Control of Protein Attachment and its Optical Detection. Protein array technologies have applications in the rapid diagnosis of disease. Biosensors can detect traces of biohazards. Before widespread implementation of these technologies can occur however, a rapid, sensitive and convenient readout method for the control and readout of attachment of proteins to antibodies is needed. I will use electric fields, combined with array imaging at surface plasmon resonance to achieve this aim. This protein diagnostic array technology will enable accurate and rapid diagnosis of disease, generating savings on health costs and improving public health. Manufacture in Australia will bring further economic benefits.Read moreRead less
