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
Controlling light to understand and drive nanoscale processes. This project aims to develop a suite of light-based sensing technologies capable of quantifying the dynamic environment within a living cell. These technologies will extend our capacity to harness light-matter interactions at the nanoscale, providing new insights in fields ranging from plant biology to medicine.

Hector: a revolutionary survey machine to discover how galaxies formed. The formation of the Milky Way, is one of the most important questions in cosmology today. One of the key unknowns is how the gas, which forms the stars, gets into dark matter halos to make galaxies and why these galaxies spin. This project aims to assemble a first-rate instrument team to build Hector, the first automated hexabundle spectrograph; to assemble a large team to combine Hector's spectral imaging of 100,000 galaxies with new Australian radio observations; and to extend this technology for the Giant Magellan Telescope. This will help to ensure Australia's leadership in observational cosmology and instrumentation through this decade and into the era of extremely large telescopes.Read moreRead less
