The Federal Government delivered its response on Tuesday, 15 May, to the National Collaborative Research Infrastructure Roadmap, announcing $72M of new National Research Infrastructure (NRI) funding over the next four years for capital investment in eResearch.
A growing number of researchers have indicated that QRIScloud is becoming an increasingly critical component in helping them to deliver research outcomes.
UQ’s Professor Joe Shapter and Griffith’s Professor Andrew Smith have joined QCIF’s board of directors.
Dr Francis Gacenga, QCIF's eResearch Analyst at USQ, has begun trialling a monthly Hacky Hour on the Springfield campus.
Making data publicly available is integral to the dissemination of research output. However, data submission to international repositories can be challenging.
Work started on the Australian Environmental Microbiome Research Data Cloud project last month, which will link significant national biological data sets with national biosciences computational infrastructure and services funded through the Government’s National Collaborative Research Infrastructure Strategy (NCRIS).
University of Technology Sydney (UTS) in conjunction with QCIF are developing “Provisioner”, an open framework to integrate and simplify research data management.
QCIF is close to producing 16 new ‘The Carpentries’ instructors for Queensland after a successful instructor training session on 9–10 April in Brisbane.
A diverse group attended this week’s QCIF-hosted Carpentries workshop in statistical software ‘R’ at Griffith University.
Nicholas (Nicko) Matigian has joined QFAB Bioinformatics as a data analyst, specifically as a biostatistician and bioinformatician.

Read more ...There's an important distinction between climate change and climate change adaptation. Research into climate change looks at questions of how the climate is changing and how this change will affect the environment. Climate change adaptation looks at how we can respond to these changes – how we can reduce the impacts of stresses on human and natural systems including our cities and regions, our agriculture and aquaculture, and the biodiversity of our environment, and how we can harness any beneficial opportunities. In other words, what should we do to prepare and adapt?
