Research provides insights into Tasmania’s Lake Vera more than 800 years ago

National Science Week is a time to celebrate science and the important role national science agencies like ANSTO play in delivering outcomes that benefit all Australians.

Nuclear science is applied by ANSTO's scientists in many areas that are vital to Australia's future, including agriculture, industry and manufacturing, minerals construction, health and environment. Our work in the development and applications and new knowledge and skills arises from world-class experience in nuclear science and technologies.
