ANSTO Big Ideas encourages students to creatively communicate the work of an Australian scientist, and explain how their work has inspired them to come up with a Big Idea to make our world a better place. This competition is intended to engage and support Australian students in years 7-10 in Science and encourage them to pursue studies and careers in STEM.

Accelerator Physicist
Role at ANSTO
The Scientific Computing team supports researchers by performing numerical simulations that complement experimental research. In particular, we use state-of-the-art software to perform computational quantum mechanical modelling, molecular dynamics simulations, lattice dynamics calculation, data analysis and visualisations.
Radioisotopes are widely used in medicine, industry, and scientific research. New applications for radioisotopes are constantly being developed.
Designed for those working predominantly with unsealed radioactive sources, typically in a research, radiopharmaceutical or hospital environment. ANSTO is a recognised leader in radiation safety training, delivering industry and regulator-approved courses including S8, S10, S12 & S36.
Sydney
Designed for those working with industrial gauges such as fixed radiation gauges incorporating gamma or neutron sources, portable moisture/density gauges, and borehole logging equipment incorporating radiation sources. ANSTO is a recognised leader in radiation safety training, delivering industry and regulator-approved courses including S7, S10, S12, S30 & S35.
