Congress marks watershed moment for nuclear medicine and ANSTO

The Australian Synchrotron in Melbourne has a suite of X-ray and infrared beamlines with applications in health, medical, food, environment, nano-technology, energy, mining, advanced materials, agriculture and cultural heritage.

Research on a rare type of superconducting intermetallic alloy

Jack the Super Prawn lives in the Barrier Reef and uses his powers to protect the environment. With JackVac, he cleans up rubbish and impurities in seawater. With JackCopter, he soars high into the air, where you wouldn't normally see a prawn. Of course, powers like that help Jack find and clear up waste plastic. But Jack's main job is to educate young readers.

The proof of concept for the approach used in the early development of the new gamma-ray imaging system has been published,

ANSTO is a highly regulated organisation. Our governance system and processes provide critical guidance to effectively manage ANSTO’s activities. This section outlines the processes and systems that are in place to provide assurance to Government, our stakeholders and the community that we are working within our regulated and mandated requirements.

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.

ANSTO recognises the traditional indigenous owners of the land at all its sites and works to contribute to the recognition of the indigenous cultural heritage of Australia.

Indigenous Kakadu plum farmers attend workshop on use and application of the elemental fingerprint technology for indigenous bushfoods provenance.

International study has revealed a clustering of charged particles in the microgravity environment of space,with implications for the development of materials and better drugs that depend on the mixing of two or more charged particles.

ANSTO’s Australian Synchrotron has been working on an initiative that could substantially improve radiotherapy treatment for cancer patients. 

An Australian-led international research team, including a core group of ANSTO scientists, has found that doping a promising material provides a simple, effective method capable of extracting uranium from seawater.

A large international team led by scientists from the Institute for Superconducting and Electronic Materials at the University of Wollongong has verified that the introduction of  novel molecular orbital interactions can improve the structural stability of cathode materials for lithium-ion batteries.

You are invited to submit to the various awards from ANSTO, User Advisory Committee (UAC) and Australian Neutron Beam User Group (ANBUG). 

The Think Science! event encourages students to engage with the Science Inquiry Skills process as outlined in the Australian National Curriculum.
