The Leading Innovations through New Collaborations (LINC) program provides dedicated funding for new research collaborations between early to mid-career researchers based at TRI and early to mid-career clinicians based at either
Metro South Health or the Children's Health Queensland. The scheme offers $50,000 grants, to foster new, translational research collaborations between researchers and clinicians.

Project: Understanding the multifaceted roles of NK cell populations in Cancer

We are looking for clinical collaborators working on any cancer type. Clinical collaborator would help shaping the proposal to decide which stages, sample types and clinical correlates to focus on. Ideally, we would need access to an annotated biobank with samples that can be analysed by flow cytometry (blood, ascites fluids, bone marrow aspirates).

Project: Understanding resistance to immunotherapy:
A Multiomic Approach

Identifying predictive biomarkers of response to immunotherapy remains a current unmet clinical need. We are looking for clinical collaborators to take part in clinical cohort studies, providing: retrospective tissue samples from patients that had response/resistance to immunotherapy, pathology annotations, and clinicopathological findings.
