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
Alzheimer's disease is the most common neurodegenerative disease of the ageing population and is associated with toxicity of the Abeta peptide. Prion diseases (eg CJD in humans) are infectious neurodegenerative disorders caused by misfolding of the prion protein. This proposal aims to bring together similar features of these diseases using novel cell and animal based studies to develop better diagnostics and greater understanding of the molecular basis of these disorders with a view to developin ....Alzheimer's disease is the most common neurodegenerative disease of the ageing population and is associated with toxicity of the Abeta peptide.
