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.

This project aims to solve hard, outstanding problems which have impeded our ability to progress in the area of quantum or noncommutative calculus. Calculus has provided an invaluable tool to science, enabling scientific and technological revolutions throughout the past two centuries. The project will initiate a program of collaboration among top mathematical researchers from around the world and bring together two separate mathematical areas into a powerful new set of tools. The outcomes from the project will impact research at the forefront of mathematical physics and other sciences and enhance Australia’s reputation and standing.Read moreRead less

Summary
Unlocking the secrets of modular representations. This Fellowship aims to greatly increase our understanding of the fundamental symmetries of discrete structures, like those present in computer science and cryptography. The research will generate transformative new knowledge in pure mathematics concerning the representations of finite groups, problems that have been unsolved for over a century. Expected outcomes of this fellowship include new algorithms to compute far beyond what is currently p ....Unlocking the secrets of modular representations. This Fellowship aims to greatly increase our understanding of the fundamental symmetries of discrete structures, like those present in computer science and cryptography. The research will generate transformative new knowledge in pure mathematics concerning the representations of finite groups, problems that have been unsolved for over a century. Expected outcomes of this fellowship include new algorithms to compute far beyond what is currently possible and a new understanding of the arithmetic difficulties present. Key benefits will be seen in the development of an emerging technology with significant implications for mathematics, and the training of Australian scientists in sophisticated theory and large-scale computation in concert.Read moreRead less

Summary
An Innovative and Advanced Systems Approach for Full Life-Cycle, Low-Emissions Composite and Hybrid Building Infrastructure. This project will develop a 'green' sustainable composite steel-concrete building frame system that reduces greenhouse gas emissions throughout the life-cycle of building construction, usage and deconstruction. It will eliminate the use of ordinary Portland cement, which is a major carbon dioxide producer, by using geopolymer concrete made from fly-ash, and will use econom ....An Innovative and Advanced Systems Approach for Full Life-Cycle, Low-Emissions Composite and Hybrid Building Infrastructure. This project will develop a 'green' sustainable composite steel-concrete building frame system that reduces greenhouse gas emissions throughout the life-cycle of building construction, usage and deconstruction. It will eliminate the use of ordinary Portland cement, which is a major carbon dioxide producer, by using geopolymer concrete made from fly-ash, and will use economic thin-walled, high-strength steel sections. Deconstructability is provided through bolted joints and by using tensioned bolts as shear connectors between the steel skeleton and concrete flooring. This project is underpinned by the extensive background of the candidate, and provides a very timely solution to a major contemporary engineering challenge facing Australia.Read moreRead less

This project aims to develop theories and practical methods to design wireless communication systems for future generations of internet services. Emerging smart environments and infrastructure could solve major problems facing the world today, by saving energy, reducing pollution, improving health and increasing road safety. However, scientists to date do not know how to build wireless networks with almost zero latency and ultrahigh reliability, needed for machine-to-machine communications. An expected outcome of this project is new criteria and methodologies to design such wireless systems, which would affect future wireless systems and grids.Read moreRead less

Summary
Understanding the implications of population ageing for the future costs of funding health care, aged care and aged pensions in Australia. Decisions about health insurance, aged care, superannuation and retirement are often very complex, and most people find making the best choices extremely challenging. This project will develop new models and design new policies that can help people make better decisions in these areas, leading to greater well being in retirement.

Summary
Evolutionary ecology of vegetation. A more fundamental understanding will be developed about the architecture and ecology of vegetation and why it varies around the world. Understanding confers benefits for land management as well as cultural value. Under a high carbon dioxide future scenario, models will be needed that operate through fundamental mechanisms of evolution, competition and physiology, rather than through extrapolation from present-day plants. Australia is a leader in globalising p ....Evolutionary ecology of vegetation. A more fundamental understanding will be developed about the architecture and ecology of vegetation and why it varies around the world. Understanding confers benefits for land management as well as cultural value. Under a high carbon dioxide future scenario, models will be needed that operate through fundamental mechanisms of evolution, competition and physiology, rather than through extrapolation from present-day plants. Australia is a leader in globalising plant trait ecology, and the program will develop that role further. Through intensive short courses within the Sydney basin and at national scale, research capacity will be developed towards the coming four-way fusion among functional ecology, earth system science, comparative genomics and palaeobiology.Read moreRead less
