Role at ANSTO

Chronic kidney disease of unknown origin
In 2017, ANSTO's CEO signed a Memorandum of Understanding with Sri Lanka to work together to investigate the epidemiology of Chronic Kidney Disease of unknown origin (CKDu).

After your experiment
Following your experiment at the Australian Synchrotron there are certain tasks that users can complete including a user feedback survey and claiming reimbursement for travel expenses.

Role at ANSTO
Tuning thermomechanical properties
Wombat used in study that showed tuneable thermal expansion by controlled gas sorption.
Evaluating the impact of nanomaterials on health and the environment
ANSTO has put together a robust multidisciplinary approach to understanding the impacts of nanomaterials, investigating a common food additive, E171 titanium dioxide, used primarily as a colouring agent in everyday foods.

Kathleen manages the quality and document management systems, and oversees procedures for inspection, testing, and calibration of equipment and systems, to support the accelerator operations and beam lines.
Potential true theranostic agent for cancer produced
Scandium 47, a therapeutic radioisotope and potential theranostic, has been produced for the first time at ANSTO. Theranostics are used to both diagnose and treat disease.

CORIS360® case studies
Volunteer Week: Part one

Role at ANSTO
European neutron scattering research community faces challenges

Role at ANSTO:
ITRAX scanning on cores from Macquarie Island
Research reveals that strong westerly winds weaken the Southern Ocean’s ability to store carbon and thereby contribute to faster accumulation of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere
The physics of producing nanoparticles
Measurement research undertaken to ensure safe, well-engineered nanoparticles

High Performance Macromolecular Crystallography Beamline (MX3)
The High Performance Macromolecular Crystallography beamline will enable the study of very small (sub-5 micrometre) or weakly diffracting crystals, providing a state-of-the-art high-throughput facility for researchers. MX3 will be able to study the structures of large proteins and protein complexes for virology, drug design and industrial applications via goniometer mounted crystals, in-tray screening, or via serial crystallography methods.
Radiocarbon is a powerful tracer for ocean circulation and climate studies
Radiocarbon analyses on corals from two sites in Australian waters of the southwest (SW) Pacific has indicated significant changes in ocean circulation in the Pacific and large climate variability during the early to mid-Holocene period (8,000-5,400 years ago).
