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.

Exposing the complex and flexible genetic basis to polygenic adaptation: integrating population and quantitative genomic approaches. Using leading-edge genomic approaches, the project will dissect the genetic basis to adaptation across an entire species range. The results will highlight the complex nature of adaptation to environmental change and will deliver new approaches to study it in natural populations.
Are good males bad females? Sexual conflict in hermaphrodites. Animal hermaphrodites (organisms that are both males and females) are extremely common and important from both an economic and ecological perspective but we know little about the evolution of this group. This project will examine how sexual conflict, so pervasive in organisms with separate sexes, affects the evolution of hermaphrodites.
Genomic diversity, tolerance and ecology of wildlife disease. This project aims to understand the regulation of viral disease by vertebrate hosts. Viruses are rapidly evolving threats to humans, agriculture and wildlife and understanding of these threats can be transformed by combining the latest genomic, ecological and immune-pathological approaches. This project expects to reveal how hosts manage the bad effects of viruses in natural populations and fill gaps in fundamental knowledge of virus- ....Genomic diversity, tolerance and ecology of wildlife disease. This project aims to understand the regulation of viral disease by vertebrate hosts. Viruses are rapidly evolving threats to humans, agriculture and wildlife and understanding of these threats can be transformed by combining the latest genomic, ecological and immune-pathological approaches. This project expects to reveal how hosts manage the bad effects of viruses in natural populations and fill gaps in fundamental knowledge of virus-host evolution. Anticipated benefits include improved management, risk assessment and decision-making for animal disease and biosecurity in Australia and globally.Read moreRead less
