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 project will improve accessibility to rehabilitation, improve health outcomes, and establish an economic model contributing to sustainability and planning of future services.
Towards Better Detection And Management Of Sports Concussion In Australia
Funder
National Health and Medical Research Council
Funding Amount
$200,027.00
Summary
The proposed program, in partnership with the AFL, will constitute the cornerstone of a foundation of research into current guidelines for the detection and management of sports concussion. The recent development of non-helmeted accelerometer technology has enabled real-time detection of head impact biomechanics in male and female Australian footballers. Outcomes will inform game day and long term management of sports concussion nationally (elite & amateur), and inform other similar sports

National Health and Medical Research Council
Funding Amount
$802,673.00
Summary
Every 15 hours a new child is born with Cerebral Palsy (CP). CP is due to an early static brain injury however physical problems can progress. Our PREDICT program will examine early measures of brain structure and motor development combined with growth, nutrition, physical activity, cognition, communication, participation, quality of life outcomes at 8 years and relate these to the costs of health care. These prediction models will inform the timing of early interventions, appropriate service pr ....Every 15 hours a new child is born with Cerebral Palsy (CP).
