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
Stomach cancer remains a major cause of suffering and death worldwide. While the bacterium Helicobacter pylori is known to be a very important risk factor for stomach cancer, other factors including a subject’s genetic makeup and environmental factors also play a pivotal role. Thus, we aim to identify specific innate genetic changes that are associated with increased risk of stomach cancer across different populations so that subjects can be screened for these genetic biomarkers.
Innate Immune Signalling In Mycobacterium Tuberculosis Infection

Summary
Tuberculosis (TB) is a major global health threat that causes 1.5 million deaths every year. This study will characterise a new molecular control mechanism that optimises the immune response to the bacteria that cause TB and determine how it contributes to controlling the infection. Such knowledge is essential to help improve patient management and develop better treatments for this devastating disease.
