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.

Exploring The Role Of Arrcd4 In Extracellular Vesicle Biogenesis And Its Implications In Tissue Homeostasis
Funder
National Health and Medical Research Council
Funding Amount
$678,742.00
Summary
Most cells in the body release small packages known as extracellular vesicles (or EVs in short), which carry proteins and other cellular material. EVs transport important cellular messages required for the everyday function of cells and play crucial roles both in normal wellbeing and disease. This proposal will investigate how EVs are formed, how they select their protein content and how they contribute to the maturation of some cell types in the body.
A Novel Mechanism For Regulating Membrane Proteins By Ubiquitin Ligases And Their Adaptors
Funder
National Health and Medical Research Council
Funding Amount
$627,897.00
Summary
Many membrane proteins act as ion channels, transporters or receptors for extracellular ligands and are critical to normal functioning of the cell. These proteins are generally regulated by transport to or from the membrane to ensure that correct levels are maintained at the membrane. This proposal is to study a novel way of regulating membrane proteins. The successful completion of the work will provide important knowledge relevant to many human diseases.
