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
Recurrent seizures arising from abnormal brain activity are call epilepsy. Presently, epilepsy is treated using medicines by mouth. These often cause side effects affecting other body systems such as liver. Such effects can make patients ill or prevent them using particular drugs for epilepsy. Developing ways to deliver epilepsy medication directly to brain may allow better control of epileptic seizures with fewer side effects. We hope to develop a new such system using rats with epilepsy.
