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
The multi-centre randomised controlled POCER (Post-Operative Crohn’s Disease Recurrence) trial has shown that following “curative” surgery, the anti-tumour necrosis factor drug adalimumab prevents recurrent disease in almost all patients. I will examine the multiple factors that contribute to disease recurrence including assessment of mucosal microbiota, faecal biomarkers and serological antibody markers in patients with Crohn's disease. Results will improve clinical outcomes and change internat ....The multi-centre randomised controlled POCER (Post-Operative Crohn’s Disease Recurrence) trial has shown that following “curative” surgery, the anti-tumour necrosis factor drug adalimumab prevents recurrent disease in almost all patients.

The Role Of Wheat Gluten In The Genesis Of Gastrointestinal Symptoms And Fatigue In Patients With Non-coeliac Gluten Intolerance.

Funding Amount
$686,242.00
Summary
Currently �gluten- and wheat-intolerances� are poorly recognised by the medical profession and yet many Australians who do not have coeliac disease claim to be wheat- or gluten-intolerant. The most common complaints relate to chronic fatigue and gut symptoms such as wind and bloating. Our research team have new and recent evidence that wheat-gluten does trigger symptoms in some patients who suffer from Irritable Bowel Syndrome. This project aims to improve our understanding in this area.
Effect Of A Four-food Elimination Diet In Children With Eosinophilic Oesophagitis – A Multi-centre, Randomised Controlled Trial And Investigation Of Disease Mechanisms
Funder
National Health and Medical Research Council
Funding Amount
$538,792.00
Summary
Eosinophilic oesophagitis (EO) is a recently recognised form of allergic inflammation in the oesophagus. EO is increasingly common in childhood and often linked to food allergy. Its treatment in children mainly relies on complex elimination diets or a liquid elemental formula which may require tube feeding due to poor taste. This Australian multi-centre trial will assess the effects of a four-food elimination diet in children with EO and will investigate novel disease mechanisms.
