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.

Measurement and imaging of pathogenic and diagnostic iron oxide nanoparticles using proton magnetic resonance. This project is likely to result in new and improved technologies to aid in the management and diagnosis of a range of diseases including iron metabolism disorders such as thalassaemia and neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer's disease. Other aspects of the research may lead to technologies for the early detection of some cancers. The technologies will enhance Australia's intern ....Measurement and imaging of pathogenic and diagnostic iron oxide nanoparticles using proton magnetic resonance. This project is likely to result in new and improved technologies to aid in the management and diagnosis of a range of diseases including iron metabolism disorders such as thalassaemia and neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer's disease. Other aspects of the research may lead to technologies for the early detection of some cancers. The technologies will enhance Australia's international standing in the field of advanced medical imaging and have the potential to be commercialised within the Australian biotechnology sector. During the project, research students will receive high quality multidisciplinary training ensuring the supply of personnel with high-level technical expertise into the future.Read moreRead less

Summary
Ultra-high resolution magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) system for physical applications. Ultra-high resolution magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) system for physical applications: Ultra-high field magnetic resonance imaging provides unique high contrast images at previously inaccessible levels of resolution (<0.1mm). It non-invasively provides unprecedented information on chemical and biochemical processes including functional biological mechanisms. This infrastructure will be the focal point for ....Ultra-high resolution magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) system for physical applications. Ultra-high resolution magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) system for physical applications: Ultra-high field magnetic resonance imaging provides unique high contrast images at previously inaccessible levels of resolution (<0.1mm). It non-invasively provides unprecedented information on chemical and biochemical processes including functional biological mechanisms. This infrastructure will be the focal point for more than 100 academics and HDR students. It will take Australia to the forefront of magnetic resonance imaging capability as well as providing unique insights into diffusion and electrophoretic problems central to designing next generation energy storage. Outcomes will range from agricultural advances, higher performing batteries, and more effective cancer treatments as well advancing Australia's fundamental scientific capabilities.Read moreRead less
Modulating neuron activity with terahertz light. The increasing prevalence of high frequency electromagnetic radiation for military applications, communication and imaging has prompted interest in the effects of these frequencies in neuroscience. The primary aim of this project is to understand the interactions and effects of terahertz light (or T-rays) on neurons and brain tissue and will build on Australia's position as a leader in terahertz technology. This work will identify optimal paramete ....Modulating neuron activity with terahertz light. The increasing prevalence of high frequency electromagnetic radiation for military applications, communication and imaging has prompted interest in the effects of these frequencies in neuroscience. The primary aim of this project is to understand the interactions and effects of terahertz light (or T-rays) on neurons and brain tissue and will build on Australia's position as a leader in terahertz technology. This work will identify optimal parameters for neuronal modulation with one of the potential outcomes being the possibility of controlling neuron firing rates which has applications in neuroscience. It also has clinical implications in terms of the suppression of pain and other neurological disorders.Read moreRead less
