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.

Physiological Mechanisms Of Experimental Preeclampsia.
Funder
National Health and Medical Research Council
Funding Amount
$471,862.00
Summary
Defining the sequence of abnormalities of immune system regulation and vascular reactivity would greatly enhance our understanding of the underlying mechanisms of preeclampsia (hypertension in pregnancy) and lead to opportunities for definitive treatment for the mother and baby other than by urgent delivery of the pregnancy. Results from this study may lead to tests in early pregnancy of the hypoxic environment such as cytokine imbalance.
Activation Transcription Factor-4: Novel Regulator Of Smooth Muscle Cell Repair And Intimal Thickening Through Tenascin C
Funder
National Health and Medical Research Council
Funding Amount
$228,313.00
Summary
CVD represents the most important cause of morbidity and mortality in the world, accounting for 35% of all deaths in Australia. Smooth muscle cell growth accounts for a range of vascular proliferative disorders. This project focuses on understanding the role of ATF-4 as a new key regulator of SMC proliferation and intimal thickening in injured vessels. Moreover, strategies targeting ATF-4 will facilitate future therapeutic strategies to control intimal thickening in patients with vascular diseas ....CVD represents the most important cause of morbidity and mortality in the world, accounting for 35% of all deaths in Australia.
