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.

REVERSING EPITHELIAL TO MESENCHYMAL TRANSITION BY TARGETED EPIGENETIC EDITING IN BREAST CANCER

Summary
Cancer cell spread around the body involves changes in the cells which allow them to migrate into blood vessels, travel and then invade other organs, a process called epithelial mesenchymal transition (EMT). EMT also makes cells less sensitive to our best treatments. EMT involves switching on genes that activate these changes and switching off genes that silence them. We will develop therapy that will reverse this process, both reducing cancer spread and making cancer treatment more effective.
