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.

Visualising genetic mosaicism during development. Genetic diversity is the variation in DNA sequence among individuals. We now know that there are also differences in the DNA sequences of cells within the same individual, known as genetic mosaicism. The aims of this proposal are 1) to develop a system to visualise genetic mosaicism 2) arising during embryonic development and 3) in the brain, driven by mobile DNA activity. The expected outcome of this proposal is an unprecedented understanding of ....Visualising genetic mosaicism during development. Genetic diversity is the variation in DNA sequence among individuals. We now know that there are also differences in the DNA sequences of cells within the same individual, known as genetic mosaicism. The aims of this proposal are 1) to develop a system to visualise genetic mosaicism 2) arising during embryonic development and 3) in the brain, driven by mobile DNA activity. The expected outcome of this proposal is an unprecedented understanding of the scope and consequences of mobile DNA-driven mosaicism. This work will have significant impacts in developmental genetics and neurogenetics, and has the benefit of introducing an innovative experimental system with the potential to spark international scientific collaboration and recognition.Read moreRead less
The role of gene isoforms in human brain development. This project aims to investigate how genes vary their products to control human brain development, by creating new methods to study gene activity in individual brain cells. Using these innovative methods, this project expects to generate fundamental new knowledge of how the human brain forms. Expected outcomes of this project include widely applicable techniques, strengthened international (UK) research collaborations and highly trained perso ....The role of gene isoforms in human brain development. This project aims to investigate how genes vary their products to control human brain development, by creating new methods to study gene activity in individual brain cells. Using these innovative methods, this project expects to generate fundamental new knowledge of how the human brain forms. Expected outcomes of this project include widely applicable techniques, strengthened international (UK) research collaborations and highly trained personnel in genomics and neuroscience. This should deliver many benefits, including a better understanding of how the brain forms, training of higher degree by research students, as well as tools and methods of benefit to the academic research and biotechnology sectors.Read moreRead less
