ANSTO helping to ensure the safety of astronauts in space
A team of ANSTO health researchers, staff at the Centre for Accelerator Science and Dr Melanie Ferlazzo, a postdoc from the French National Institute of Health and Medical Research (INSERM), and scientists from the French Space Agency (CNES), are collaborating on investigations to determine the impact of secondary particles on human cells using the new microprobe beamline at ANSTO’s Centre for Accelerator Science.
Material with molecular trapdoor holds promise for highly selective gas adsorption
An international team led by scientists at City University of Hong Kong has found flexible metal-organic framework (MOF) with one-dimensional channels that acts as a “molecular trapdoor” to selectively adsorb gases, such as carbon dioxide, in response to temperature and pressure changes.

Advanced synchrotron imaging supports Australian dinosaur research discovery
Groundbreaking research published today in the Journal of Vertebrate Paleontology by the Museums Victoria Research Institute and Monash University unveiled a landmark discovery – fossils of the world’s oldest known megaraptorid and the first evidence of carcharodontosaurs in Australia.

What are radioisotopes?
Radioisotopes are widely used in medicine, industry, and scientific research. New applications for radioisotopes are constantly being developed.
Eureka finalist
Two ANSTO scientists were part of a research team led by the University of Wollongong, who are finalists for the 2019 NSW Environment, Energy and Science (DPIE) Eureka Prize for Environmental Research.
Radiocarbon is a powerful tracer for ocean circulation and climate studies
Radiocarbon analyses on corals from two sites in Australian waters of the southwest (SW) Pacific has indicated significant changes in ocean circulation in the Pacific and large climate variability during the early to mid-Holocene period (8,000-5,400 years ago).
