Research challenges assumptions about deep-sea volcanic eruptions
In the push and pull of crowds, disordered proteins dance precariously
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.
Evidence of earliest Aboriginal occupation of Australian coast
Evidence of the earliest occupation of the coasts of Australia from Barrow Island, Northwest Australia.
Advanced materials research in microgravity earns NASA recognition
A pioneering study led by Professor Junpei Yamanaka of Nagoya City University and an international team that included ANSTO has delivered transformative insights into the behaviour of colloidal particles under microgravity.
Advanced imaging techniques provide earliest evidence of fruit-eating by ancient bird
International palaeontologists have used advanced imaging techniques at ANSTO’S Australian Synchrotron to clarify the role that the earliest fruit-eating birds of the Cretaceous period may have had in helping fruit-producing plants to evolve.
Understanding radiation damage at the atomic scale
Personalised cancer therapy
Research collaboration with University of Sydney focuses on a personalised approach to cancer treatment.
Unearthing immune responses to common drugs
Innovator in energy and sustainability uses power of synchrotron light to make advances
ANSTO scientists would have preferred more about the physics but impressed with Oppenheimer
In part 1 of this two-part series, ANSTO scientists from across the organisation became film critics to review Christopher Nolan’s new movie, Oppenheimer, which explores the life of the director of the Manhattan Project to develop an atomic weapon.
ANSTO's innovative approach to treating cancer gets funding
An international team led by ANSTO has been awarded a prestigious program grant from the Foundation for Australia-Japan Studies.

Infrastructure - Cultural Heritage
In Australia and the Southeast Asia basin, the ANSTO facility offers a wide range of unique nuclear-beam techniques for cultural heritage research.
An innovative way to deliver drugs using nanocrystals shows potential benefits
Monash University researchers have used advanced techniques at ANSTO to investigate the production of new, elongated polymer nanocapsules with a high payload of drug nanocrystals to potentially increase drug targetability, and also decrease dosage frequency and side effects.
Research brings new insights to the complex immune response in the brain
Interactions of nanoplastics

Enhancing the science of rivets earns researcher early career award
Dr Rezwanul Haque, now a senior lecturer at the University of the Sunshine Coast, received a national Young Scientist Award for his earlier research using nuclear techniques at ANSTO’s Australian Centre for Neutron Scattering to find cracks and signs of stress in riveted joints in sheet metal in car bodies.

Highlights - Cultural Heritage
Over the last decades, neutron, photon, and ion beams have been established as an innovative and attractive investigative approach to characterise cultural-heritage materials.
