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.

Exploring The Role Of MiRSNPs In Diagnosis And Prognosis Of Prostate Cancer
Funder
National Health and Medical Research Council
Funding Amount
$428,065.00
Summary
Genetic variants, when used alongside PSA and family history, could be a better early biomarker to identify men predisposable to develop prostate cancer or/and to distinguish slowly progressive from aggressive disease. We will undertake a comprehensive study on a special class of genetic variants "miRSNPs" in the non-coding region of the prostate cancer related genes and will also identify their mechanism of action, and their potential as a biomarker for prostate cancer diagnosis and prognosis.
Structural Characterization Of A Novel AB5 Cytoxin - SubAB
Funder
National Health and Medical Research Council
Funding Amount
$210,760.00
Summary
The proposed research program, using a combinantion of structural biology and biophysical techniques will provide insight into the role of novel AB5 toxin from E. coli. This study will not only improve our fundamental understanding the mode of action of this toxin from this devastating pathogen, but could lead to the design of rational antimicrobials. The knowledge gained will increase Australian international research profile.
