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.

I am a neuroscientist employing strategies of anatomy, biochemistry, pharmacology, genetics and behavioural analysis to examine the physiological and possible pathological roles of newly discovered neuropeptides and their cognate receptors in mammalian brain. My recent research has focused on the highly-conserved, abundant peptide, relaxin-3 that was discovered at the HFI in 2002.

My recent research has focused on the highly-conserved, abundant peptide, relaxin-3 that was discovered at the HFI in 2002. Studies so far have revealed that relaxin-3 is a powerful modulator of rhythmic brain activity (theta) and spatial memory, and alters feeding, body weight and arousal. Relaxin-3 levels in brain are also strongly activated by acute stress. In the future, I aim to elucidate further the role of relaxin-3 systems in normal physiology and metabolic and-or psychiatric diseases.Read moreRead less
I am a clinician scientist and nephrologist. My research involves preclinical and clinical translational approaches to identify new targets and develop novel treatments to prevent, reverse and retard the development and progression of diabetic complications.
My research is to learn more of the genetic and epigenetic mechanisms governing the development of the reproductive cell lineage, or the cells that make eggs and sperm. My research is required to better understand human reproduction and human embryonic, fetal and neonatal development, and will help in the treatment of diseases affecting these processes.
My research involves the generation of human cell types from of human embryonic stem cells. These normal human cells could potentially be used for transplantation, drug screening and vaccine development.
