Tackling international public health issue
ANSTO facilitating coordinated effort to find the nexus that leads to chronic kidney disease of unknown origin
Investigating unusual water movement
ANSTO expertise focused on understanding of reduced water levels at Thirlmere Lakes in three year collaborative project
Scholarship recipients focus on recycled fuels to improve sustainability of nuclear industry
Two early career nuclear scientists who received international scholarships have spent time in the Nuclear Fuel Cycle group at ANSTO are making progress on their work to improve nuclear fuel.
Funding backs ANSTO‑led program to develop new treatment for deadly brain cancers
ANSTO has secured a $1.62 million Medical Research Future Fund (MRFF) grant under the Australian Brain Cancer Mission’s 2024 Brain Cancer Discovery and Translation program
Declaration of the national radioactive waste management facility in South Australia is an important outcome for Australia
A site for the National Radioactive Waste Management Facility has been acquired, with the new facility to be built near the town of Kimba on the South Australian Eyre Peninsula.
Rock art dating
Development of new techniques makes it possible to date Australian Aboriginal rock art.
Materials in extreme environments
Material researchers at ANSTO use a range of in-house capabilities in the development, testing and characterisation of existing and emerging materials for extreme environments of the novel nuclear (fission/fusion) based energy-generation systems.
Partnering with government and Aboriginal organisations to ensure the safety of drinking water in Aboriginal communities
ANSTO is working with government partners to ensure that radioactivity in drinking water supplied to Aboriginal communities is at levels considered safe for consumption.
Materials in extreme environments
Materials researchers focus on development, performance and in-service degradation of nickel-based superalloys, reinforced carbon-Carbon (C/C) composites, and ultra-high temperature ceramics (UHTC).
Australian Synchrotron MX2 Upgrade
Tracking oxytocin to understand the biological pathways linked to human cognition and behaviour
Nuclear power technologies
Nuclear power is used as a reliable and clean energy solution in most OECD countries and many other parts of the world. Although it is banned in Australia, a number of government reviews are looking at current prohibitions on nuclear power.
Bacteria-driven remediation of iron ore tailings
Billions of tonnes of iron ore tailings are generated each year from the mining industry. Converting these toxic tailings into soil-like materials which can develop and sustain plant and microbial communities is critical for mine site remediation and improved environmental outcomes.
A robust mixed metal-organic framework for CO2 absorption and conversion
Beamline Scientist XFM
Role at ANSTO
New facility complements ANSTO’s extensive radiocarbon capabilities
A new radiocarbon dating facility opened at the University of New South Wales (UNSW) will complement the extensive radiocarbon facilities at ANSTO’s world-leading Centre for Accelerator Science
How nuclear energy generation could support clean hydrogen production
Nuclear-based energy generation systems not only provide comparatively low-cost, low-carbon emission electricity but also provide substantial amounts of process heat.
