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.

Summary
Microwave Assisted Chemistry - new approaches to molecular diversity. This project will support the establishment of a multi-user, fully automated microwave reactor facility that will be the first of its kind in an academic laboratory in Australia. The equipment will support a wide range of synthetic chemistry research by providing microwave acceleration to otherwise slow reactions and in some cases promotion of reactions that do not normally proceed under conventional conditions. The automation ....Microwave Assisted Chemistry - new approaches to molecular diversity.
