A University of Southern Queensland researcher solved a health data project’s issues of storing and sharing non-open, non-sensitive data by using QCIF’s QRIScloud and Nextcloud services.
Tania Phillips, a Research Assistant at USQ’s Institute for Resilient Regions in the Centre for Health, Informatics and Economic Research, is part of a team looking at how to reduce the numbers of people with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) presenting at Queensland hospital emergency departments. COPD includes illnesses such as lung disease, chronic bronchitis and emphysema.
A James Cook University coastal ecology PhD student has developed a digital toolbox built in Python, created to “spy” on intertidal crabs in their natural environment.
Cesar Herrera Acosta used QRIScloud in his work to create 'Crabspy'. He also had support from QCIF's JCU-based eResearch Analyst and the helpers at JCU's Hacky Hour.
A significant University of Queensland evolutionary discovery published in Nature has had the helping hand of QFAB for the last four years.
QFAB Database and Systems Administrator Nick Rhodes spends about one day a week working with the Degnan Marine Genomics Labs, with half of that day embedded within the research group.
As a USQ special education researcher, Dr Kay Ayre would carry a portable hard drive to regularly back up her files of data. QRIScloud and Nextcloud solved that problem for her.
QCIF’s USQ-based eResearch Analyst, Dr Francis Gacenga, helped Dr Ayre set up a Nextcloud desktop application on her computer and transfer her files across. Dr Ayre then used Nextcloud (with QRIScloud as the backend) to store all her files—research, data collection, teaching content and the like.
QFAB bioinformatician Valentine Murigneux will present her work on a rare species of macadamia tree at the International Plant and Animal Genome Conference in San Diego, USA, 11–15 January 2020.
