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.

Uncovering a novel energy-sensing mechanism in the brain. This project aims to investigate a novel regulator of energy homeostasis in the brain, a protein kinase called SIK3. Energy homeostasis is essential for life as it ensures an adequate supply of fuel to cells of the body. This project intends to generate new knowledge about molecular switches to regulate energy homeostasis by using innovative gene technologies and transgenic animal models. The expected outcomes include generating fundament ....Uncovering a novel energy-sensing mechanism in the brain. This project aims to investigate a novel regulator of energy homeostasis in the brain, a protein kinase called SIK3. Energy homeostasis is essential for life as it ensures an adequate supply of fuel to cells of the body. This project intends to generate new knowledge about molecular switches to regulate energy homeostasis by using innovative gene technologies and transgenic animal models. The expected outcomes include generating fundamental insights into how SIK3 in the hypothalamic neurons regulates energy homeostasis. Benefits include improving population health and wellbeing, informing the development of new bio-medical technologies, and expanding the capabilities of Australia’s next generation of researchers.
