Pioneering collaboration advances nuclear medicine
This joint initiative at ANSTO has developed a new capability: solid surface radiolabelling to evaluate Auger emitting sources for next-generation targeted therapy.
Role at ANSTO
Research finds a potential new "silver bullet" nanoparticle to treat brain cancer
Collaboration investigates a promising new nanoparticle for potential use in combination with other therapies for brain cancer
X-ray fluorescence scanning
X-ray fluorescence scanner is a powerful analytical tool for environmental studies.
Smart silicone coatings that can change their friction and stickiness
Research led by a group from the University of Newcastle has found a new way to make silcone surfaces – and have even discovered that they can control how slippery they are.
Dr Naveen Vankadari is a Beamline Scientist (Industry Specialist) across the structural biology beamlines at the Australian Synchrotron (ANSTO).
Accelerator Systems Overview
Role at ANSTO
Data analysis - XFM beamline
Data analysis on the X-ray fluorescence microscopy beamline at the Australian Synchrotron.

The microstructure of paracetamol
Analysing the microstructure of paracetamol using synchrotron infrared optical technique provides insights.
Advanced materials research
New oxygen ion conducting material for use in solid oxide fuel cells and other devices
ANSTO's X-ray techniques support improvements in solar
Advanced X-ray techniques have revealed new structural details about the specific arrangement of atoms in conjugated polymers, an important class of materials that are used in LEDs, organic solar cells, transistors, sensors and thermoelectric power devices.
Big Ideas
ANSTO Big Ideas encourages students to creatively communicate the work of an Australian scientist, and explain how their work has inspired them to come up with a Big Idea to make our world a better place. This competition is intended to engage and support Australian students in years 7-10 in Science and encourage them to pursue studies and careers in STEM.
Advanced Diffraction & Scattering Beamlines (ADS-1 and ADS-2) UNDER CONSTRUCTION
The Advanced Diffraction and Scattering beamlines (ADS-1 and ADS-2) are two independently operating, experimentally flexible beamlines that will use high-energy X-ray diffraction and imaging to characterise the structures of new materials and minerals.
Role at ANSTO
- Leader, Energy Materials Research Project
Significant progress on ultraflexible solar cells
A collaborative group including Monash has produced an ultra-thin and ultra-flexible organic solar cell for advanced wearable devices.
Last meal reveals eating habits of Australian sauropod
International research led by Curtin University and supported by ANSTO, has identified and studied the first sauropod dinosaur gut contents found anywhere in the world. The stomach content was preserved with a reasonably complete skeleton of the Australian Cretaceous species Diamantinasaurus matildae found in Winton Queensland.
