Clarity Pharmaceuticals is building on comprehensive work on chelators carried out at ANSTO.

An international team led by ANSTO has been awarded a prestigious program grant from the Foundation for Australia-Japan Studies.

High intensity X-ray beam provides insights into the activity of natural killer cells.

The nature of Metal-Oxide-Semiconductor Field Effect Transistors (MOSFETs) present a fascinating paradox in space exploration. Their strength in radiation detection becomes their weakness in space operations, exposing an Achilles' heel for NASA. Yet, these same devices monitor radiation doses received by humans on earth and in space.

ANSTO offers a diverse range of career opportunities within science, engineering, corporate services and trade disciplines.

Detailed molecular structure of silver nanocrystals determined

In an effort to understand why the Tongan Hunga volcano eruption was so explosive, internationally-recognised volcanologist Prof. Shane Cronin of the University of Auckland and associates rely on beamlines at the Australian Synchrotron to support comprehensive research on the Hunga event.

There have been significant developments in small modular reactor technologies in 2022. The International Atomic Energy Agency expects small modular reactors (SMRs) to make an important contribution to achieving global climate goals and energy supply security. But with more than 70 SMR designs under development in 18 countries – including innovative reactors that are yet to be licensed and novel methods of modular manufacturing that are new to the nuclear industry – widely deploying SMRs in time remains a tall task.

The Titan Krios cryo-electron microscope reveals the inner workings of life at the cellular level.

This COVIDSafe Plan describes the actions that ANSTO will take to keep our staff, contractors and visitors and platform users and collaborators safe and minimise the risk of the spread of COVID-19 infection.

ANSTO has put together a robust multidisciplinary approach to understanding the impacts of nanomaterials, investigating a common food additive, E171 titanium dioxide, used primarily as a colouring agent in everyday foods. 

ANSTO contributes to major study on global warming by measuring methane and carbon monoxide trapped in ice.

Environmental scientist with a passion for fieldwork and a lifelong commitment to scientific excellence

ANSTO has produced a comprehensive report for the NSW Department of Planning and Environment that represents a significant scientific investigation of the connections, pathways and processes of water loss from the Thirlmere Lakes system.

A collaboration of scientists from RMIT, ANSTO and the CSIRO has published pioneering research that brings new insights into intrinsically disordered proteins and protein regions (IDPs)/ (IDRs) and how they behave under various physiological processes.

Phase contrast tomography shows great promise in early stages of study and is expected to be tested on first patients by 2020.
