ANSTO has warmly welcomed the official launch of the Monash Precinct Network by Victorian Member for Ashwood, Matt Fregon MP at a special event at the Australian Synchrotron.

The Australian Synchrotron has played a crucial role in the discovery of a new cancer drug for the treatment of leukaemia.

Experts at ANSTO’s Australian Synchrotron are prioritising work that could hold the key to fast-tracking the development of a vaccine for COVID-19.

Two Australian scientists have been appointed to assist with the development of a $500 million-dollar synchrotron facility in Mexico, the first and largest project of its kind.

ANSTO proudly contributes to measures that recognise all aspects of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander culture and heritage during NAIDOC Week and all year.

A group from Monash university has sought to make a new innovative nano-porous sieve material which has the potential to be produced on a global scale and is effective for a much longer time.

Dr Jessica Hamilton, a beamline scientist at the Australian Synchrotron, has won the Falling Walls Lab competition hosted by the Australian Academy of Science for her 3 minute presentation on a novel approach to using mining waste for carbon dioxide capture and a source of carbonate minerals. The event is held to deliver solutions to some of the most promising challenges of our time.

The High Performance Macromolecular Crystallography beamline will enable the study of very small (sub-5 micrometre) or weakly diffracting crystals, providing a state-of-the-art high-throughput facility for researchers. MX3 will be able to study the structures of large proteins and protein complexes for virology, drug design and industrial applications via goniometer mounted crystals, in-tray screening, or via serial crystallography methods.
