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.

Discovery Of New Targets For Therapy That Kills Non-dividing Cancer Stem Cells

Funding Amount

Summary
I am a clinical haematologist that specialises in treating patients with a terrible form of blood cancer, acute myeloid leukaemia. Survival rates for this disease have not changed for 30 years and we now realise this is because we are not targetting the queen bee of the cancer - the cancer stem cell. In this project I am looking for cell markers that are only present in rare, truly latent non-dividing cancer stem cells effectively change a remission into a cure.
Characterising The Mechanisms That Control Blood Cell Development

Summary
Hematopoiesis is a tightly regulated process that provides the body with a constant supply of all the cells of the blood system. My studies aim to characterize the molecular mechanisms that regulate the expansion and differentiation of hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) into each cell lineage. These studies will be key to the effective use of cellular transplantation therapeutic strategies and aim to provide a greater understanding of the mechanisms that underpin proliferative disorders such as can ....Hematopoiesis is a tightly regulated process that provides the body with a constant supply of all the cells of the blood system.
