Understanding disease - Causation and progression
This program uses ANSTO’s nuclear capabilities to identify, quantify, and monitor the mechanisms which cause, or influence the development and progression of chronic diseases.
AUM2019 - Accommodation & Transport
Recommended accommodation and transport information.
Unsung Aussie Net Zero Hero
Australia’s Nuclear Science and Technology Organisation (ANSTO) is well-known for facilitating incredible science and creating life-saving nuclear medicines, but for the last 40 years it’s been quietly producing a largely unsung net zero hero: Neutron Transmutation Doped (NTD) silicon.
Micro-Computed Tomography beamline (MCT)
With enhanced submicron spatial resolution, speed and contrast, the Micro-Computed Tomography beamline opens a window on the micron-scale 3D structure of a wide range of samples relevant to many areas of science including life sciences, materials engineering, anthropology, palaeontology and geology. MCT will be able to undertake high-speed and high-throughput studies, as well as provide a range of phase-contrast imaging modalities.
Exploring the role of water in the complex energy landscape of proteins
Understanding how a common food additive causes changes in the microbiome
ANSTO has collaborated on a study assessing the impact of the commonly-used food additive titanium dioxide (TiO2) on gut microbiota and inflammation.
Big Ideas
ANSTO Big Ideas encourages students to creatively communicate the work of an Australian scientist, and explain how their work has inspired them to come up with a Big Idea to make our world a better place. This competition is intended to engage and support Australian students in years 7-10 in Science and encourage them to pursue studies and careers in STEM.
Proposed new ANSTO waste facility
The independent nuclear regulator, ARPANSA, is currently accepting submissions about ANSTO’s planned $59.8 million Intermediate Level Solid Waste Storage Facility.
ARC Discovery project funding for geometry of the genome and the engineering of solid-state sodium batteries announced
Three ANSTO scientists are contributing to two recently awarded Australian Research Council Discovery Project grants.
Identification and analysis of components in bruises
As blood breaks down in the skin tissue, the colour of a bruise changes with time. As such, it may be used to find out information about the age of the bruise and hence a timeframe of when the incident that caused the mark took place.
Role at ANSTO
Award-winning research publication on superalloys
Industrial Engagement Manager at ANSTO and Professor in Advanced Structural Materials at the University of Sydney, Anna Paradowska is among the authors who contributed to a 2019 paper that was recently awarded the ASM International ASM Henry Marion Howe Medal in Metallurgical and Materials Transactions A.
Collecting ice cores for research
Dr Andrew Smith has just finished collecting ice cores and snow samples on the summit of Law Dome in Antarctica,
ANSTO hosted workshop brings scientists together from Asia and the Pacific to address food fraud using nuclear science and technology
ITER update
Favourable conceptual design review may lead to expanded role for Australia on ITER diagnostics.
Tailorable nanoscale emulsions
Progress on tailorable nanoscale emulsion for a wide variety of applications including drug delivery
Pioneering collaboration advances nuclear medicine
This joint initiative at ANSTO has developed a new capability: solid surface radiolabelling to evaluate Auger emitting sources for next-generation targeted therapy.
Australian-first detector to accelerate cancer research
Multi-million dollar Australian Cancer Research Foundation (ACRF) Detector launched at the Australian Synchrotron,
3D cell printing technology earns ANSTO Eureka Prize for Technology
Researchers and industry partners from UNSW Australia, the Australian Centre for Nanomedicine, Children’s Cancer Institute and Inventia Life Sciences Pty Ltd have been awarded the 2021 ANSTO Eureka Prize for Innovative Use of Technology for their method to rapidly-produce 3D cell structures
