New approaches to functional and structural genomics

基因组测序揭示了组成我们细胞的一整套大分子。我们现在需要了解这些大分子是如何以协调的方式协同工作的。拟议的研究将导致发现对细胞功能至关重要的新生物分子、相互作用和过程，确定新的治疗目标和抗击疾病的策略，确定生物和纳米技术的新概念，并培训新的跨学科研究人员。它将支持国家研究重点(建设和改造澳大利亚工业的前沿技术，以及促进和维护良好健康)，并帮助澳大利亚利用大量机会，获得未来的经济和健康利益。

Genome sequencing has revealed complete sets of macromolecules that make up our cells. We now need to learn how these macromolecules work together in a coordinated fashion. The proposed research will lead to the discovery of new biological molecules, interactions and processes essential for the function of cells, identify new therapeutic targets and strategies to combat disease, identify new concepts in bio- and nanotechnology, and train new interdisciplinary researchers. It will underpin the National Research Priorities (Frontier Technologies for Building and Transforming Australian Industries, and Promoting and Maintaining Good Health) and help Australia capitalise on a plethora of opportunities for future economic and health benefits.
