Summary
ARC Research Network in Microarray Technology. The primary aim of this proposal is to transform the premier genomic technology into a standard research tool; microarrays are now a priority for anyone studying the genetics underlying key biological processes. A principal challenge for the Australian research community is to capture all aspects of microarray technology and make them readily available. We will address these needs by developing a network to:
-establish regular research meetings,

The primary aim of this proposal is to transform the premier genomic technology into a standard research tool; microarrays are now a priority for anyone studying the genetics underlying key biological processes. A principal challenge for the Australian research community is to capture all aspects of microarray technology and make them readily available. We will address these needs by developing a network to:
-establish regular research meetings,
-facilitate training in array methodologies and bioinformatics,
-co-ordinate innovation of technologies,-provide centralised data warehousing,
-provide access to automated high-level gene annotation,
-provide data mining tools,
-set standards for data management and exchangeRead moreRead less

Summary
International Network for Genomics of the Root-Soil Interface (INGORSI). INGORSI brings together a new group of leading Australian and International researchers with common interests in the application of bioinformatics and genomics to understanding the root-soil interface, particularly the microbiology of this interface. The Network will communicate via a novel ?virtual? seminar room, with a research focus on molecular signals between organisms and plants of the rhizosphere that promote or pre ....International Network for Genomics of the Root-Soil Interface (INGORSI). INGORSI brings together a new group of leading Australian and International researchers with common interests in the application of bioinformatics and genomics to understanding the root-soil interface, particularly the microbiology of this interface. The Network will communicate via a novel ?virtual? seminar room, with a research focus on molecular signals between organisms and plants of the rhizosphere that promote or prevent plant growth, and also potentially impact human health. The network will facilitate high quality basic science, with linked programs that promote its application, to produce outcomes of benefit to plant crops, human health and sustainable agriculture.Read moreRead less

Summary
The Insect-Plant Chemical Ecology Network (IPCEN). We bring together plant molecular biology, entomology and analytical chemistry to transform three leading fields of Australian research into an advanced science with far reaching capabilities in innovative research and applied outcomes. Expertise studying the biochemical pathways that produce specific plant compounds and expertise in insect recognition and response to these chemicals will be brought together. This will lead to new research outco ....The Insect-Plant Chemical Ecology Network (IPCEN). We bring together plant molecular biology, entomology and analytical chemistry to transform three leading fields of Australian research into an advanced science with far reaching capabilities in innovative research and applied outcomes. Expertise studying the biochemical pathways that produce specific plant compounds and expertise in insect recognition and response to these chemicals will be brought together. This will lead to new research outcomes and solutions to problems in agriculture, horticulture, forestry and protection of Australia's native flora. Researchers are struggling to create these links, constrained by disciplinary boundaries and geographical isolation. Key industries and researchers already support this proposal.Read moreRead less
