Computation

In collaboration with our partners, the Australian Research Data Commons (ARDC) provides high capacity digital data storage for nationally significant collections, cloud computing, collection curation and data management resources, as well as national catalogue, identifier and vocabulary services.

Services

• Nectar Research Cloud is a federated service that provides Australia’s research community with fast, interactive, self-service access to computing infrastructure, software, and data. It provides a platform for cross-institutional collaboration and hosts virtual laboratories and platforms such as Galaxy Australia and Characterisation Virtual Laboratory.
• Research Data Australia is a portal where researchers can discover and publish national data collections, associated projects and other researchers. You can find, access, and reuse data for research from over 100 Australian research organisations, government agencies, and cultural institutions.
• Research Vocabularies Australia is a portal that makes it easy to find and use controlled vocabularies used in research.
• We provide services to create and manage persistent identifiers to support the identification, citation and tracking of research data, samples, software and projects.
• Research Link Australia is better connecting researchers and industry in a national discovery platform featuring Australia's national research capability, grants, publications, patents and innovator organisations. Dashboards highlight national research grants by recipient, location and including industry partners.

Services

The Data Science CRP provides essential expertise in bioinformatics, statistics, biometry and applied AI, enabling Higher Degree by Research (HDR) students and researchers to harness the full potential of their data. Support covers the entire research lifecycle, from initial data collection, visualisation and management to advanced analysis, model development and deployment, as well as ensuring researchers can work effectively with sensitive data.

Services include access to subject matter experts for on-demand support or embedded personnel collaboration on grant applications, upskilling HDRs and early career researchers (ECRs) through training workshops and co-supervision.
