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.

Targeting Cancer-initiating Cells With DNA Methyltransferase Inhibitors: Single-cell Analysis To Decipher Molecular Mechanisms And Improve Efficacy.

Funding Amount
$175,000.00
Summary
Certain cancer cells, termed cancer-initiating cells (CICs), have special properties allowing them to drive cancer growth and disease progression. These cells are particularly sensitive to low-dose treatment with drugs called DNA methyltransferase inhibitors. Using cutting-edge "single-cell" technologies this project will determine how these drugs target CICs and identify new ways to increase treatment efficacy. This work will identify new clinical opportunities for prevention of cancer relapse.
