2022 has been a big year for ANSTO with contributions to the advanced manufacturing, space, food, energy industries, and more. As we set our sights on 2023, we thought we’d take the opportunity to share some of our key innovation achievements from this year.
ANSTO experts in the measurement of radioactivity and its impacts on the marine environment presented at an IAEA training course for representatives from Pacific Island countries held in early December.
Dr Anna Paradowska has been appointed as a Conjoint Professor of Practice in Advanced Structural Materials at the University of Sydney.
ANSTO today welcomed a significant Federal Government funding allocation to further safeguard the production of life-saving nuclear medicines in Australia.
Research explores how structure contributes to function in food
Indigenous Kakadu plum farmers attend workshop on use and application of the elemental fingerprint technology for indigenous bushfoods provenance.
Stable isotopes are high useful in investigations of environmental samples.
This resource guides students through how to interpret and analyse authentic research data, generated during a collaborative project between UNSW, UTS, ANSTO and Taronga Zoo Sydney. The project examines the use of high-resolution x-ray fluorescence as a tool to combat the international illegal wildlife trade (IWT) of short beaked echidnas, which are being removed from the wild and claimed as captive-bred.
Students will:
- examine the adaptations of short beaked echidnas that increase their ability to survive in their environment
- explore the use of technology in contributing to the study and conservation of biodiversity
- construct simple graphs of the provided data using MS Excel, and interpret and analyse these graphs
- investigate how scientific knowledge interacts with social, economic, cultural and ethical issues.
ANSTO provides access to specialised facilities and capabilities by application. Please ensure that you contact the relevant ANSTO scientist for advice before submitting a proposal.
ANSTO highlighted its food origin research with live shows and an expert panel discussion to showcase Australian science in the Australia Pavilion at the Expo 2025 Osaka from 8-10 October.
The 2021 intake of bright young graduates have arrived at the ANSTO Precinct at Lucas Heights and this week will commence their exciting new career to become the nation’s future leaders in STEM and innovation.
In early February, ANSTO was honoured to host the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) National Liaison Officers Meeting and Sub Regional Approach to the Pacific Islands (SAPI) Programme, which focused on the development and delivery of the IAEA Technical Cooperation Programme in the Pacific.

Chemical deuteration involves deuterating whole molecules or building blocks for the synthesis of a desired molecule by exposing them to heavy water (deuterium oxide) at high temperatures and pressures in the presence of a catalyst. If required, compounds can then be synthesised from the deuterated building blocks using organic chemistry techniques.
