Shorebirds Competition 2021 results.

ANSTO's unique capabilities are being used to develop a quick analytical tool to determine the geographic origin of seafood and authenticates quality.

Deaf Youth Science Camp is back for 2026! Deaf Youth Science Camp (DYSC) is a fun 4-day immersive science experience for Deaf/hard-of-hearing young people (aged 12-17 years old). Held at ANSTO at Lucas Heights, Sydney, the camp is a mix of hands-on science activities, outdoor activities and excursions to nearby science centres. Participants will work with Deaf professionals to learn about careers in STEM, develop personal and leadership skills and meet new friends. This camp is hosted by Deaf Youth Australia and ANSTO, and funded by a National Science Week grant.

ANSTO researchers have taken up the challenge to develop a coating for the cladding used in nuclear reactors to prevent it from taking up hydrogen and releasing it if temperatures get too high and repair itself if damaged.

It is critical across many industries to identify and locate sources of radiation accurately and quickly. By accurately imaging radiation across the full energy range, CORIS360™ improves operational decision making across many industry settings.
