Enhancing Australian biodiscovery molecule generation, storage and access (ARC LIEF administered by Griffith University) (2023–2024)

Abstract:
This infrastructure will enhance biodiscovery capacity of four QLD universities and benefit hundreds of researchers nationally across animal/human health, aquaculture, agriculture and food security. Sample processing robotics and storage (Griffith Uni) will enhance national biomolecule curation and access at Compounds Australia and an automated LC/MS will increase natural product extraction at Nature Bank. A robotic colony picker (Uni QLD) to generate microbial products will expand the Microbes Australia library. A protein purification/expression system (James Cook Uni) will facilitate microbial-derived biologic/vaccine discovery. Live cell imaging (Uni Sunshine Coast) will facilitate biodiscovery, aquaculture and conservation research.
