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
Law for the public's health: the impact of medico-legal institutions on public health. Medico-legal agencies, like complaints commissions and coroners, focus on helping families in distress 'pick up the pieces'. Through a series of partnerships this project will use public health research to help transform their roles.

Simulating subjective experience: a new paradigm in immersive visualisation. This project aims to harness emerging immersive visualisation technology, pioneering a new approach to the study of subjective experience. The project expects to develop a transformative research tool, a virtual Perception Environment that simulates seeing through the eyes of another, with the larger social goal of transforming capacity to understand stigmatised and devalued populations, and of effectively remediating t ....Simulating subjective experience: a new paradigm in immersive visualisation. This project aims to harness emerging immersive visualisation technology, pioneering a new approach to the study of subjective experience. The project expects to develop a transformative research tool, a virtual Perception Environment that simulates seeing through the eyes of another, with the larger social goal of transforming capacity to understand stigmatised and devalued populations, and of effectively remediating the effects of stigmatisation and prejudice. The expected outcome of the project is to advance societal understanding of the experience of ageing, and substantially develop our capacity to promote empathy and to remediate the problem of stigmatisation. This will position Australia as a leader in a new area of Visualisation, engendering a powerful means of knowledge transfer.Read moreRead less

Summary
A philosophy of medicine for the 21st century. This project aims to develop a new theory of health and disease to accommodate developments in contemporary biology such as the ‘developmental origins of health and disease’, the role of the microbiome in physiology, and the fact that our bodies are sites of evolutionary conflict between multiple genomes, particularly in early life. Present science does not fit with common-sense ideas about the identity and the goals of living systems and the projec ....A philosophy of medicine for the 21st century. This project aims to develop a new theory of health and disease to accommodate developments in contemporary biology such as the ‘developmental origins of health and disease’, the role of the microbiome in physiology, and the fact that our bodies are sites of evolutionary conflict between multiple genomes, particularly in early life. Present science does not fit with common-sense ideas about the identity and the goals of living systems and the project expects to generate a close collaboration between philosophers and biomedical scientists so that new ideas about health and disease can be fed back into proof-of-principle projects for innovative new approaches to the study of health and disease. The project will conduct methodologically innovative research in the philosophy of medicine, working in close collaboration with biomedical scientists to confront the transformational discoveries about the nature of living systems that have been made in the first years of the current century and to actively shape new forms of enquiry into health that reflect those discoveries. It will make the discipline of philosophy an active participant in the creation of integrative biomedical research.Read moreRead less

Science and secularisation. Science and secularisation. This project will explore the growth of science in the West and how it relates to a decline in the influence of religion. Specifically, it will investigate whether science has been a major cause of secularisation, and whether the pattern of scientific advance and corresponding religious decline observed in most Western countries is a universal one. This project aims to address a major unresolved issue concerning the relations between reli ....Science and secularisation. Science and secularisation. This project will explore the growth of science in the West and how it relates to a decline in the influence of religion. Specifically, it will investigate whether science has been a major cause of secularisation, and whether the pattern of scientific advance and corresponding religious decline observed in most Western countries is a universal one. This project aims to address a major unresolved issue concerning the relations between religion, science and modernisation. It also aims to shed light on a crucial issue for global security, namely, whether modernisation leads inexorably to secular, liberal democratic states, or whether new forms of technologically advanced, yet intrinsically religious states are possible.Read moreRead less

Summary
Neural and behavioural evidence for children’s learning of grammatical morphology. Children with various types of language delay have problems learning grammatical structure, leading to communicative breakdown. This project will use brain imaging and behavioural methods to understand better the nature of these problems, leading to more effective intervention, better child health and wellbeing, and improved educational outcomes.
