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.

Summary
The majority of deaths from cancer are due to tumour metastasis. To metastasize, tumour cells must convert to a migratory form that can allow tumor cells to migrate and disseminate in the body. This process requires a genetic reprogramming of the cell. We have discovered that this genetic reprogramming is under the control of small RNA molecules called microRNAs. In this project we investigate what controls the levels of the microRNAs, to allow metastasis to occur in colon tumours.
