Elucidating molecular basis of the complex viscoelastic properties of polymers

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.

Routine transport of spent nuclear fuel

International interest is building in Australia’s new multi-million-dollar radioactive waste processing facility at the Sydney campus of the Australian Nuclear Science and Technology Organisation (ANSTO).

Health researchers at ANSTO use world-class nuclear and isotopic techniques to undertake research and development activities to address some of the most challenging health problems.

ANSTO recognises the traditional indigenous owners of the land at all its sites and works to contribute to the recognition of the indigenous cultural heritage of Australia.

ANSTO’s National Deuteration Facility has been providing high-quality deuterated lipids used in the construction of cell membrane models to support research that improves our understanding of how the virus interacts with elements of the cell membrane, a relatively new area of investigation.

You are invited to submit to the various awards from ANSTO, User Advisory Committee (UAC) and Australian Neutron Beam User Group (ANBUG). 

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.

A cross-disciplinary team has used laboratory-based and synchrotron-based infrared spectroscopy imaging techniques to monitor the waxy surface of living plant leaves in real-time to gain insights into plant physiology in response to disease, biological changes or environmental stress.

The Infrared Microspectroscopy beamline combines the high brilliance and collimation of the synchrotron beam through a Bruker V80v Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR) spectrometer and into a Hyperion 3000 IR microscope to reach high signal-to-noise ratios at diffraction limited spatial resolutions between 3-8 μm.
