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.

An Evidence Based Framework For Establishing Public Health Microbial Genomics In Australia
Funder
National Health and Medical Research Council
Funding Amount
$1,413,093.00
Summary
Microbial genomics is a powerful laboratory tool to characterise human pathogens at the highest level, allowing greater understanding of the source and spread of pathogens that infect humans. In this project, through close links with the Victorian Government, we will determine how this exciting new technology can best be applied to prevent the spread of high risk human pathogens, and inform public health action.
