Anonymised Review
ANSTO has agreed to participate in an Australian trial of a review of research infrastructure access proposals in which applicants remain anonymous to aid the removal of structural barriers to the career progression of Women in STEM.

Sherry entered university, torn between the allure of science and the hands-on practicality of engineering. This lead her into the field of Material Science and Engineering.
Potential good news for a warming world
Collaboration finds that old carbon reservoirs are unlikely to cause a massive greenhouse gas release in a warming world.
Australian researchers connected to global developments in new and emerging nuclear energy technologies
The Australian Government recently signed a landmark emissions reduction technology deal with Great Britain, which includes nuclear energy and clean hydrogen among the six key low emission technologies the two countries hope to advance.
Man-made fossil emissions larger than previously believed
