Research reveals little water connectivity between coal seam gas and aquifers
ANSTO proudly participates in a new ARC Centre of Excellence for Indigenous and Environmental Histories and Futures
ANSTO is participating in a new Australian Research Council (ARC) Centre of Excellence for Indigenous and Environmental Histories and Futures (CIEHF) to be headquartered at James Cook University (JCU) that aims to bring Indigenous and environmental histories to the forefront of land and sea management.

Health Research and Technology
ANSTO uses its infrastructure, capabilities and expertise to build knowledge and optimise the beneficial impacts of nuclear science on human health.
ISO nuclear safety certification is a first in Australia and the Southern Hemisphere
Advanced food provenance and biosecurity in the Asia Pacific with FNCA project
ANSTO hosted an online training workshop for the FNCA (Forum for Nuclear Cooperation in Asia) project Combating Food Fraud using Nuclear Technology (CFF) in early December.

Proposed Facility Access Terms and Conditions
ANSTO sets out the following terms and conditions relating to users who access our facilities for the purpose of research.
Transistors and NASA's radiation paradox: strength in detection, weakness in space operations
The nature of Metal-Oxide-Semiconductor Field Effect Transistors (MOSFETs) present a fascinating paradox in space exploration. Their strength in radiation detection becomes their weakness in space operations, exposing an Achilles' heel for NASA. Yet, these same devices monitor radiation doses received by humans on earth and in space.
Showcasing the power of ANSTO research to support food safety, security and productivity in Southeast Asia and the Pacific
ANSTO has recently participated in a regional program in Bangkok, Thailand, on food safety, security, and productivity using nuclear science and technology in Southeast Asia and the Pacific Islands.

What are radioisotopes?
Radioisotopes are widely used in medicine, industry, and scientific research. New applications for radioisotopes are constantly being developed.
Australia and IAEA partnership launches new radiation oncology project to improve cancer patient outcomes in Asia and Pacific region
Australia launched a new international development project in partnership with the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) to advance ‘Rays of Hope’ in the Asia and Pacific region.
ANSTO hosted workshop brings scientists together from Asia and the Pacific to address food fraud using nuclear science and technology

Radiation Consultancy and Safety
ANSTO provides trusted advice, training and consultancy services to Australia’s resource sector.

How climate change is erasing the world’s oldest rock art
Australasia is home to some of the oldest rock art motifs in the world. In tropical latitudes, due to climate change, the rock art deterioration is accelerating.
The women of nuclear stewardship science are experts in the safe use of radioactivity
Research explores how the magnetic moments of atoms in materials are arranged and interact
The unique magnetic properties and nontrivial quantum effects were observed and measured in an advanced material with potential application for quantum computing.
The history of ANSTO began 70 years ago with the Atomic Energy Act 1953
NSW report on health effects of bushfires and drought references greater role for ANSTO
The health impacts of exposure to poor levels of air quality resulting from bushfires and drought recommended that NSW Government work with ANSTO to expand the sampling of particulate matter in the air state-wide.

Air Quality
ANSTO uses atmospheric radioactivity measurements, fine particle sampling and composition analysis to understand the source and impact of harmful air pollution on human health and the environment.
