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.

Acquisition of the mitochondrial genome restores mitochondrial function. The aim of this project is to show that cancer cells with heavily damaged mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) can acquire the mitochondrial genome from the host and that this results in the recovery of their mitochondrial function. The project is highly significant, as it aims to show in vivo mitochondrial transfer with functional consequences. The project aims to open a new avenue of research and could result in a shift in our under ....Acquisition of the mitochondrial genome restores mitochondrial function.

New Antioxidants Impacting on ROS and Free Radical Mediated Cellular Damage and Disease. Oxidative stress describes the condition where free radicals damage cells and biological systems and this stress underlies many diseases including neurological conditions and aging disorders such as Alzheimer's Disease. This project sets out to create new forms of powerful antioxidant drugs able to probe the mechanisms of such diseases with the view to developing new treatments and therapies.
