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.

Biomarkers In Barrett's Oesophagus And Oesophageal Adenocarcinoma
Funder

Funding Amount
$67,690.00
Summary
Barrett’s oesophagus (BO) is a condition in which the normal lining of the lower oesophagus is replaced with intestine-like tissue as a response to long-standing acid reflux. BO can progress to oesophageal adenocarcinoma (OAC), an aggressive cancer with poor 5-year survival rates of ~15%. This project aims at detecting genetic and molecular changes that occur in both BO and OAC and which may help predict the risk of progression as well as survival for patients affected by this disease entity.
Endoscopic Removal Of Lesions In The Gastrointestinal Tract

Funding Amount
$71,855.00
Summary
Barrett's oesophagus and flat colonic polyps are premalignant lesions with potential for progression to oesophageal and colorectal cancer, respectively. These cancers make up a signifiant portion of the burden of cancer disease in Australia. This research aims to improve outcomes of patients with Barrett's oesophagus and flat polyps by establishing the most appropriate treatment approach to Barrett's oesophagus, identifying risk factors that cause disease progression and by novel ways of enhanci ....Barrett's oesophagus and flat colonic polyps are premalignant lesions with potential for progression to oesophageal and colorectal cancer, respectively.
