ANSTO is an experienced provider of Teacher Professional Development for Australian and International teachers and our courses cover a wide range of topics. Hear from expert speakers, receive new education resources, and develop lessons for your own class.

Research will change understanding of Australian Aboriginal rock art found in rock shelters of the Kimberley and its relationship to a changing landscape

Recent research investigating what occurs at the interface of the uranium oxide fuel pellet and the surrounding cladding supports efforts to increase the burnup level of nuclear reactor fuel.

The Japanese experience with leading-edge radiation treatment for cancer shows tremndous success

The nuclear analysis team at ANSTO recently had a significant role in the re-design and optimisation of a cold neutron source facility for the reactor, its installation and the subsequent restart after a six-month shutdown.

State- of-the-art microdosimeters used in research

Researchers from Murdoch University and associated collaborators are using ANSTO’s unique nuclear capabilities to gain detailed information about how wheat crops take in administered micronutrients to maximise their efficient use.

The most important data from NASA’s first crewed Artemis mission may not be its photographs, but the radiation measurements that will shape how humans work and survive beyond travel farther from Earth’s magnetic shelter safely.

ANSTO provides secondary students with a range of learning resources for those interested in science or studying for exams. For teachers, ANSTO provides learning resources and professional development, as well as in-school-term science tours and videoconferences. Workbooks are provided as required learning material to accompany a school visit to ANSTO. They can also be used on their own as a classroom resource.

University of Melbourne researchers have investigated a method to produce magnetic nanoparticles in Australia for use in COVID-19 PCR tests.

With enhanced submicron spatial resolution, speed and contrast, the Micro-Computed Tomography beamline opens a window on the micron-scale 3D structure of a wide range of samples relevant to many areas of science including life sciences, materials engineering, anthropology, palaeontology and geology. MCT will be able to undertake high-speed and high-throughput studies, as well as provide a range of phase-contrast imaging modalities.

A large international team has provided an understanding of how nanoscale interactions affect the thermal stability of a type of next generation organic solar cells.

ANSTO, Australia’s knowledge centre for nuclear science and technology, connects STEM graduates with industry to work on real-world challenges through its FutureNow Scholarships for 2022.

An environmental study supported by a citizen science project at ANSTO and UNSW has brought  greater understanding of the movement of birds between all of Australia’s major water basins and the importance of the Murray-Darling River Basin.

ANSTO has responsibilities mandated by the Australian Government for the maintenance of the national measurement standard for radioactivity.

ANSTO has unique facilities, capabilities and expertise to investigate materials in extreme environments for applications in energy systems, the defence industry and emerging space sector.
