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.

Cardiac a1-adrenergic receptors in survival of the fittest. This project aims to determine the role of alpha1A-adrenergic receptor inactivation, a receptor/signalling pathway, in mediating cardiac contraction and survival in response to stressors fight-or-flight response triggers.Higher organisms’ ability to respond to environmental changes is central to the survival of the fittest, and is mediated by the release of catecholamines that stimulate adrenergic receptors. The precise receptor and sig ....Cardiac a1-adrenergic receptors in survival of the fittest. This project aims to determine the role of alpha1A-adrenergic receptor inactivation, a receptor/signalling pathway, in mediating cardiac contraction and survival in response to stressors fight-or-flight response triggers.Higher organisms’ ability to respond to environmental changes is central to the survival of the fittest, and is mediated by the release of catecholamines that stimulate adrenergic receptors. The precise receptor and signalling pathways underlying these adaptive responses remain unclear. This project’s research could improve contractility, reduce cardiomyocyte death and define organismal adaptation to extreme environmental changes.Read moreRead less
Nutritional and bacterial influences on gut and peripheral homeostasis. Nutritional and bacterial influences on gut and peripheral homeostasis. This project aims to understand the role of macronutrients on gut homeostasis. While the understanding of what factors affect gut homeostasis is still in its infancy, scientists know that its disruption contributes to a broad range of inflammatory diseases, including type 1 diabetes and asthma. This project will determine the role of specific macronutrie ....Nutritional and bacterial influences on gut and peripheral homeostasis. Nutritional and bacterial influences on gut and peripheral homeostasis. This project aims to understand the role of macronutrients on gut homeostasis. While the understanding of what factors affect gut homeostasis is still in its infancy, scientists know that its disruption contributes to a broad range of inflammatory diseases, including type 1 diabetes and asthma. This project will determine the role of specific macronutrients on gut microbiota, gut epithelium, and immunity in mice, and the receptors involved. This research could ultimately lead to significant decreases in the cost of healthcare.Read moreRead less
