Faculty total staff incorrect - needs updating

This edit request by an editor with a conflict of interest has now been answered.

What I think should be changed:

In the table on the right hand side of the page, change faculty number from 300 to 425

Why it should be changed:

the organisation has grown and now has 425 staff not 300 as stated on wikipedia.

References supporting the possible change (format using the "cite" button): See https://neura.edu.au/ on homepage for total staff number

Done I have changed it to "400+", as indicated on the website. This should save you from coming back until they reach 500 :-) Superboilles (talk) 21:33, 29 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

What I think should be changed:

In the table on righthand side of the top of the page, change "Nickname" to "Abbreviation".

Why it should be changed:

"Nickname" is inaccurate and a clumsy expression. we do not have a "nickname" we have a formal appreviation that we use.

Not done Ok so I looked at Template:Infobox_laboratory and there's only "nickname" available. Sounds odd to me too, tbh, but nothing I can do here (or rather, I'm not experienced enough to venture modifying a template that is being used a large number of times). Sorry. Superboilles (talk) 21:33, 29 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

What I think should be changed:

In table on righthand side of the top of page, update the 'affiliations' Suggested wording: Affiliations: UNSW Sydney, Black Dog Institute, South Eastern Sydney Local Health District (SESLHD), Mindgardens Network.

Why it should be changed: UNSW is not the only institution NeuRA collaborates with, it holds multiple partnerships in the community.

Done Superboilles (talk) 21:33, 29 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

What I think should be changed:

The opening paragraph should include the following more detailed information about the institution. The information about rebranding is old and should be moved to history section.

Suggested wording: Neuroscience Research Australia (or NeuRA) is an independent, not-for-profit medical research institute based in Sydney, Australia. Neuroscience Research Australia is made up of over 400 researchers specialising in research aimed at improving the lives of people living with brain and nervous system disorders[1].

Why it should be changed:

The opening paragraph should include the following more detailed and useful information about the institution. The information about rebranding is old and should be moved to history section.

Done Fair enough. I've reworded slightly the History section. Superboilles (talk) 21:33, 29 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

What I think should be changed:

The sentence in the first section at the top of the page about NeuRA being accredited by the National Health and Medical Research Council is not correct as such accreditations no longer exist. This needs to be removed and updated with more useful info and the deadlink to NHMRC in references needs to be removed

Suggested wording: NeuRA adheres to the principles outlined in the Neuroethics Framework for the Australian Brain Institute and regularly receives funding for projects from the National Health and Medical Research Council, Australian Research Council and Medical Research Future Fund, as well as private philanthropy.

Why it should be changed:

NeuRA being accredited by the National Health and Medical Research Council is not correct as such accreditations no longer exist (this info is several decades old). This needs to be removed and updated with more useful info and the deadlink to NHMRC in references needs to be removed

References supporting the possible change (format using the "cite" button): ^[1]

References

^ "National Library of Medicine".

Done Partially. I removed the accreditation thing, but did not add the adheres to the principles outlined in the Neuroethics Framework for the Australian Brain Institute as this is to be expected and frankly trivial to mention (a notable thing would be that it does not adhere to an ethics framework). Superboilles (talk) 21:33, 29 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

What I think should be changed (include citations):

Insert the following into first section of page so that the information is more robust about NeuRA's mission and research focus.

Suggested wording: NeuRA’s vision is to enhance the health and lives of individuals affected by brain and nervous system disorders, and mission is to discover solutions for neurodegeneration, mental health, and healthy ageing through world-class medical research. NeuRA’s research spans neurodegeneration, including dementia and Parkinson’s disease; mental health and mental illness including bipolar disorder and schizophrenia; and translational neuroscience including falls prevention, pain and injury prevention. The institute prioritises applied neuroscience and translating new discoveries into practical applications.

Why it should be changed:

There is nothing on the wikipedia page about what neura does exactly.

References

Not done Promotional fluff, this brings zero actionable info (please tell me which institution would make it its mission not to be world-class, to not care about enhancing people's lives, and to not discover solutions?). I only added the second sentence which, in fact, does describe its focus. Superboilles (talk) 21:33, 29 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

What I think should be changed (include citations):

Insert location and affiliations/collaborators and accurate info about CEO into intro.

Suggested wording: Situated among the Randwick Health Precinct, NeuRA is affiliated with Black Dog Institute, South Eastern Sydney Local Health District (SESLHD), UNSW Sydney and Mindgardens Network. The current Chief Executive Officer and Institute Director is Professor Matthew Kiernan AM, who joined NeuRA in 2023^[1].

Why it should be changed:

No useful info currently in the introduction.

Done I think the CEO's nomination is a fairly trivial event, I've moved the ref to the infobox.

Research Activity section has old outdated information in it

This edit request by an editor with a conflict of interest has now been answered.

What I think should be changed:

The below is related to 'Research Activity' section:

This opening sentence is incorrect and based on old information: "NeuRA’s research activity is organised into five themes".

Change to the following suggested wording: NeuRA’s research activity is organised into three themes.

Why it should be changed:

Since 2021, NeuRA's research activity is divided into 3 themes, not 5 themes.

Done Superboilles (talk) 21:39, 29 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

What I think should be changed (include citations):

This section of the page which lists five research themes is no longer accurate with current NeuRA's research direction:

"Ageing and neurodegeneration: Alzheimer's disease, frontotemporal dementia and other types of dementia, Parkinson's disease, motor neuron disease, ageing research in indigenous populations, stroke rehabilitation. Brain function and imaging: brain mapping for research and clinical use, on-site MRI scanning, autism. Neural injury: spinal cord injury, assessment and prevention of road trauma in children Mental illness: schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, depression Sensation, movement, balance and falls: human movement, fatigue, sleep apnoea, balance and vision, neural control of muscles, falls in older adults, chronic pain"

Change to suggested wording: Neurodegeneration: Ageing in indigenous and general populations, Alzheimer's disease, frontotemporal dementia and other types of dementia, mitochondrial disease, motor neuron disease, NeuroHIV and Parkinson's disease. Mental health: Wellbeing and resilience, bipolar disorder, depression, schizophrenia, and stress-related psychopathology. Translational neuroscience: Back and muscle pain, balance training, sleep apnoea, injury prevention, chronic pain, falls prevention, hip fracture care and recovery, spinal cord injury, neural injury, phantom limb pain, sensation, stroke and vestibular balance.

Why it should be changed:

what is currently there no longer accurate with current NeuRA's research direction.

Outdated info on this page

This edit request by an editor with a conflict of interest was declined.

What I think should be changed:

In the Research Action section, the following sentence is several decades out of date and the references can be condensed into one single reference: "NeuRA houses research centres, including the Sydney Brain Bank, Spinal Cord Injury Research Centre, Transurban Road Safety Centre and Centre for Pain IMPACT."

Suggested wording: NeuRA is home to 28 research centres and groups, including the Aboriginal Health and Ageing program, Centre for Pain IMPACT, Centre for Wellbeing, Resilience and Recovery, Dementia and Health Ageing, Falls, Balance and Injury Research Centre, Mental Illness, Motor Impairment Research Centre, Parkinson’s and Mitochondrial Disease, Sensory Neurophysiology, Sleep Disorders, Spinal Cord Injury Research Centre, and Transurban Road Safety Centre^[1].

Why it should be changed:

NeuRA has grown and houses many more research centres than the 4 listed above. The info currently there is several decades out of date and the references can be condensed into one single reference

Not done for now: As ARandomName123 said, we dont really need that many examples, Please select the important ones and the ones that stand out from the rest The AP (talk) 09:28, 28 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

NeuRA is home to 28 research centres and groups, including the Aboriginal Health and Ageing program; Dementia and Health Ageing; Falls, Balance and Injury Research Centre, Parkinson’s and Mitochondrial Disease; Spinal Cord Injury Research Centre; and the Transurban Road Safety Centre. Brainfutures (talk) 05:23, 18 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Is it okay to have these 6 examples? These are only 6 out of our 28 groups. If I have to narrow down then let's go with Aboriginal Health and Ageing program; Dementia and Health Ageing; Falls, Balance and Injury Research Centre; and the Transurban Road Safety Centre. Brainfutures (talk) 11:49, 8 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Suggestion to add a new subheading called "Location & Facilities"

This edit request by an editor with a conflict of interest was declined. Some or all of the changes may be promotional in tone.

What I think should be changed (include citations):

Insert new subheading called "Location and Facilities" (many other wikipedia pages feature such a subheading.

Suggested wording:

"NeuRA is located in the purpose-built Margarete Ainsworth Building on Barker Street in Randwick, Sydney. The building houses multiple state-of-the-art facilities and laboratories such as: - Brain Mapping Facility - Gait labs - NeuRA Imaging - Sydney Brain Bank - Transurban Road Safety Centre

The Brain Mapping Facility is run by brain cartographer Scientia Professor George Paxinos AO and a team of researchers who produce atlases of the human brain. Atlases produced by NeuRA are used internationally as the standard guides for scientific work, as well as by neurosurgeons to target small deep lying structures in the brain.

NeuRA has three Gait and Balance Analysis Research Laboratories, including state-of-the-art 3D motion capture, in-floor force plates, electromyography, inertial sensors and an instrumented dual-belt perturbation treadmill. These laboratories facilitate NeuRA’s studies to understand the control of balance and walking, enabling researchers to identify fall risk factors, and develop strategies to prevent falls and fall-related injuries. The treatment of injuries from falls cost the Australian economy $2.3 billion a year^[1].

The Sydney Brain Bank, located at NeuRA, is a specialised biobanking facility that collects, characterises, stores and distributes human brain and spinal cord tissue for research into ageing and neurodegenerative disorders. Since its inception in 2005, it has gathered brain tissue samples from over 750 donors which, through post-mortem analysis, has led to the discovery of new disorders, novel genes and therapeutic strategies for conditions affecting the brain and mind. The Sydney Brain Bank has facilitated over 350 studies and provided more than 38,000 specimens of donated neurological tissue^[2].

The NeuRA Imaging facility is run by Professor Caroline Rae and is an open-access 3T MRI research facility, available to those wanting to use it for academic, industry and clinical research purposes. Since the facility opened in 2003, the team has worked with universities and other research institutions, pioneered new cutting edge imaging techniques, published 350+ papers and continues to help to drive new knowledge of the human brain and body^[3].

The Transurban Road Safety Centre was built in 2017 through a partnership with Transurban^[4]. It combines world-class research with state-of-the-art facilities, including a custom-made crash sled, to enable NeuRA researchers to carry out research into improving road safety. Research conducted in evidence-based insights have been used to inform policymakers, education campaigns and driven technological advancements in vehicle safety."

Why it should be changed:

We have noticed that other Wikipedia pages about medical research institutes usually feature a "Location and Facilities" subheading on the page. For example: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Victor_Chang_Cardiac_Research_Institute

We would like to have such a subheading as well.

Move a section

The user below has a request that a significant addition or re-write be made to this article
for which that user has an actual or apparent conflict of interest.
The requested edits backlog is very low.
There are currently 16 requests waiting for review.

Please read the instructions for the parameters used by this template for accepting and declining them, and review the request below and make the edit if it is well sourced, neutral, and follows other Wikipedia guidelines and policies.

Move this section from “New building and Renaming” to "Research Achievements." It should go after the 2017 paragraph:

In 2018, NeuRA formed a cooperative partnership of four clinical, educational and research allies, including Black Dog Institute, South Eastern Sydney Local Health District (SESLHD) and UNSW Sydney to create Mindgardens Neuroscience Network which became the largest collaboration between researchers and clinicians in the Southern Hemisphere on brain disorders.

Reason for the change: It is better suited in that section

References supporting change: Keep same references
