Exemplar Projects

Exemplar projects are studies that have been onboarded on the SeRP service platform. SeRP is integrated into specific research applications within social sciences and health research domains, including population health, policy development, complex biology, and therapeutic development.

  • RISE Project- Monash University

    The Revitalising Informal Settlements and their Environments (RISE) study is a transdisciplinary randomised trial evaluating the impacts of an intervention to upgrade urban informal settlements in two Asia-Pacific countries (Indonesia and Fiji).

  • Energy Data Repository- Monash University

    Two of the grand challenges facing humans today are mitigating climate change and eradicating poverty. One of the United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goals is to ensure access to affordable, reliable, sustainable and modern energy for all.

  • Predicting fracture outcomes using AI (PRAISE)

    The PRAISE study will establish the use of AI techniques to provide enhanced information about fracture characteristics in people with wrist fractures.

  • Dementias Platform Australia - UNSW Sydney

    The objective of DPAU is to support researcher access to data from multiple Contributing Research Studies (CRS) and enable new insights into ageing, ageing-related diseases and dementia risk, with the aim of transforming the epidemiology of ageing and dementia.

  • Social Investment Data Resource (SIDR)- Curtin University

    SIDR is an ongoing linked data repository that connects together health and non-health data for all young people in Western Australia. Datasets include births, deaths, hospital, emergency, perinatal, aedc, child protection, and housing amongst others.

  • Reviewing and managing chronic kidney disease to improve outcomes- Curtin University

    This study will utilise linked data to build a state-wide patient registry to establish the current trajectory of individuals with chronic kidney disease (CKD) across WA.

  • Linking 4 Life Project- Curtin University

    The Linking4Life project involves the creation of a linked data repository containing social services datasets for Western Australia, to address complex & often interrelated issues of child abuse & neglect, justice system involvement, disability and poverty.

  • Aged Care Data Compare Project- QCIF

    Residential aged care facilities (RACFs) in Australia use a variety of software solutions to collect and manage data related to the assessments and care of residents.

  • ALSWH and CRE WaND Project- QCIF

    The Australian Longitudinal Study on Women’s Health (ALSWH) is a national data asset of multi-wave longitudinal survey data of women’s physical and mental health and their use of health services.

  • ATLAS First Nations Study-QCIF

    The ATLAS Indigenous Primary Care Surveillance Network is a collaboration with multiple Aboriginal Community Controlled Health Organisations (ACCHOs) across Australia to better utilise service level data and drive improvements to the way in which clinics screen, test and treat sexually transmissible infections (STIs) and blood-borne viruses (BBVs) and other vaccine-preventable diseases (VPD).

  • Australian Centre of Excellence in Melanoma Imaging and Diagnosis (ACEMID) QCIF

    ACEMID is a multi-disciplinary and multi-site collaborative imaging program investigating the use of 3D Total Body Photography (TBP) to improve early detection of melanoma and other skin cancers.

  • Australia and New Zealand Dialysis and Transplant (ANZDATA)

    Multiple risk factors link chronic kidney disease and cardiovascular disease needing surgery. However, trends in cardiac surgery incidence and outcomes thereafter are poorly known for those people presumed to be most at risk, with kidney failure (treated with dialysis or kidney transplant to ensure long term survival).

  • The Global Drug Survey - QCIF

    The Global Drug Survey is the world’s largest online survey of drug use. Each year, the survey is typically completed by more than 100,000 respondents, resulting in large multi-year data sets.


Success Stories

  • PRAISE Project

    “The PRAISE project demands high computing power and internet-based pre-training data and programming packages to run the AI models.

    SeRP team have tailored a high-powered Linux machine for our AI team to use within the SeRP environment to run the models, safe from the vagrancy of the outside internet.”

    Prof. Belinda Gabbe, Monash University.

  • DPAU Project

    “SeRP is a trusted environment and an optimal solution for DPAU data-sharing platform.

    Dementia Platform Australia (DPAU), has benefited from the existing SeRP instance at Monash University, which is supported by a highly professional team.”

    Dr. Vibeke Catts, UNSW Sydney.

  • RISE Project

    “SeRP platform plays a pivotal role in supporting RISE’s commitment to FAIR data principles. Its secure environment, combined with access to computational power and analytical tools, enables researchers to access sensitive data while adhering to ethical requirements.”

    Dr Fiona Barker, Monash University.

  • Global Drug Survey

    “ARDC’s investment in Secure eResearch Platforms like Monash SeRP and QCIF KeyPoint has provided a go-to solution to collaborate with academic and research partners from the four corners of the planet.

    These Trusted Research Environments (TREs) provide the required scalable data governance and secure data analysis environment to meet GDS’s needs; now the researchers ‘come to me’ rather than the ‘data going to them.”

    Prof. Jason Ferris, The University of Queensland
