A high throughput phenomics facility for pace of life traits in animals: This project seeks to create the first high-throughput phenomic facility for animals in Australia. The molecular revolution has brought unprecedented capacity to understand genetic variation. Genetic variation is now better understood and more easily and cheaply characterised than the physical traits that organisms exhibit. Linking phenotypic variation to genetic variation represents the major challenge in harnessing the power of the biomolecular age. This facility will accommodate animals from marine, freshwater and terrestrial systems across a diverse array of phyla. It will allow Australian researchers to leverage advances in high throughput genomic technologies to address a major bottleneck in biology.

一个高通量表型组学设施，用于动物的生活节奏特征：该项目旨在创建澳大利亚第一个高通量表型组学设施。分子革命带来了前所未有的理解遗传变异的能力。遗传变异现在被更好地理解，比生物体表现出的物理特征更容易和更便宜地表征。将表型变异与遗传变异联系起来是利用生物分子时代力量的主要挑战。该设施将容纳来自海洋，淡水和陆地系统的动物，跨越各种门。它将使澳大利亚研究人员能够利用高通量基因组技术的进步来解决生物学中的一个主要瓶颈。
