ANSTO and University of Wollongong collaborate on new quality control device to enhance precision in advanced cancer treatment
Researchers from the Health Research and Technology Group at ANSTO and the University of Wollongong have developed a new device that could improve the quality control of accelerator-based boron neutron capture therapy, a promising radiation therapy for treating aggressive cancers.
User Access
The User Office is the first point of contact for all new and returning facility users accessing ANSTO’s wide range of world-class research infrastructure. These users may be internal ANSTO researchers, external merit researchers, commercial clients, scientific collaborators and partners.
Radiotherapy
The radiography program focuses on the development of Neutron Capture Enhanced Particle Therapy (NCEPT) from initial preclinical work, to clinical trials and finally commercial translation and licencing.
From digital to biological: A full-stack research capability
A unique scientific capability comprising a single research platform for high-fidelity simulation, real-time dosimetry, and biological response data is available all from a neutron instrument.
Rutherford Backscattering
Rutherford backscattering primarily provides information about the concentration of elements VS depth in a light material.
Producing fish oil without odour and a longer shelf life
Research undertaken by Flinders University, the University of Cincinnati (US), Guangzhou University (China) and ANSTO has evaluated a new process to encapsulate fish oil in nanoparticles
Detached retina of laboratory animal “glued” with new hydrogel
A kilometre of cores and counting: the mighty ITRAX
ITRAX has now analysed more than a kilometre of cores since it became operational in 2012.
A closer look at the scientific power of nuclear and accelerator techniques
In Part 2 of our series exploring the world of nuclear science and technology at ANSTO, we share more detailed information about the nuclear scientist’s toolkit.
QANT
An analysis program for viewing and analysing near-edge X-ray absorption fine-structure (NEXAFS) spectra.
First magnetisation curves from PPMS
Global futurist and thought leader on biotechnologies, health and innovation to present at ANSTO
The nandin Innovation Centre and Southern Sydney Innovation Network are excited to host Dr Tiffany Vora, Expert and Vice Chair Digital Biology and Medicine at Singularity University, for two presentations on Diversity and Inclusion and Biotech, along with an interview with DR KC Huang.
Novel research gives more clues about minerals under pressure within earth or other planets
A study has provided insight into copper sulfate pentahydrate and could give clues to how other hydrated minerals change under the pressures within planetary environments
Operations
Accelerator Operators operate the synchrotron and its subsystems 24 hours a day, six days a week, and maintain very high beam availability for facility users.
Role at ANSTO
Sample Environments
The Australian Centre for Neutron Scattering maintains a sample environment service for the instruments. It comprises a range of sample environments, two sample environment laboratories and four sample preparation laboratories.
Laboratory Safety
All safety requirements must be met while working at the Australian Centre for Neutron Scattering. Failure to do so may result in the suspension of experiments.
Using nuclear techniques for coastal environments
