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.

Infrastructure requested will expand the capacity of researchers in NSW/NT to undertake environmental, medical and evolutionary studies using state-of-the-art technologies based on the recent advances in DNA sequencing analyses. It will ensure the retention of leading researchers in the exciting areas of genomics and Systems Biology and make a significant contribution to biomolecular research in medicine, agriculture and environmental biology, thereby providing major benefits to the wider community. The application will enhance existing genomic technologies by substantially increasing the scope of experiments that can be performed leading to important advances in gene discovery.Read moreRead less
CENTRE for INTEGRATIVE LEGUME RESEARCH. Legumes are essential for environmental sustainability and are important for maintaining human health. The Centre combines innovative genomic approaches to investigate the causal phenotypic links required for regulation of legume growth. The unique coexistence of multiple pluripotent meristems in shoots, roots, flowers and nodules permits the discovery of new paradigms governing legume architecture, reproductive differentiation and root-nodule developmen ....CENTRE for INTEGRATIVE LEGUME RESEARCH. Legumes are essential for environmental sustainability and are important for maintaining human health. The Centre combines innovative genomic approaches to investigate the causal phenotypic links required for regulation of legume growth. The unique coexistence of multiple pluripotent meristems in shoots, roots, flowers and nodules permits the discovery of new paradigms governing legume architecture, reproductive differentiation and root-nodule development. New knowledge of the plant growth processes through mechanistic analysis of organ induction provides the tools to optimise the legume's productivity, quality, and environment adaptation.Read moreRead less
Mouse models for the identification of factors involved in muscle adaptation. The ability of muscle to adapt to meet functional demands is essential for mobility in normal daily life, in ageing well, in individuals with muscle diseases and nerve damage and in athletes. The ability of muscle to change its cellular composition is desirable for the livestock industry. Knowledge of how genes in muscle cells are regulated to adapt to demands has significant implications for public health and economic ....Mouse models for the identification of factors involved in muscle adaptation. The ability of muscle to adapt to meet functional demands is essential for mobility in normal daily life, in ageing well, in individuals with muscle diseases and nerve damage and in athletes. The ability of muscle to change its cellular composition is desirable for the livestock industry. Knowledge of how genes in muscle cells are regulated to adapt to demands has significant implications for public health and economic benefits. We have devised model systems that will allow us to identify the regulators of these genes in order to develop therapies to combat these changes in ageing and damaged muscle, to improve the quality of meat and optimise sport performance.Read moreRead less
