Renewed agreement with Japanese research organisations to bolster cooperation in neutron science and technology
ANSTO renewed its Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with the Japan Proton Accelerator Research Complex (J-PARC) operated by the High Energy Accelerator Research Organisation (KEK) and Japan Atomic Energy Agency (JAEA). Now broadened to include their partner Comprehensive Research Organization for Science and Society (CROSS), the signing took place early in the year and a celebratory workshop was held late July.
Aboriginal inhabitants of Madjedbebe, northern Australia used different ways to adapt to environmental change
ANSTO has contributed to research that indicated that Aboriginal people had a broad diet and intensive plant processing technologies, allowing them to respond to changes in climate, sea level and vegetation over the last ca. 65,000 years.
