Role at ANSTO
Macromolecular crystallography continues to help elucidate complex protein structures
International collaboration uses cryo-electron tomography to determine the structure of a complex responsible for sorting and delivering cellular cargo.
Successful ARC Discovery Project 2024
Radiotracer characterisation and evaluation
Biosciences staff support research for radiopharmaceutical translation, radiation biology and radiotracer studies. New radiotracers can be fully characterised and assessed by a range of evaluation techniques, including in vitro and in vivo studies.

Radiotracer studies
The use of radioisotopes, radiolabeled molecules and radioactive particles in conjunction with a range of quantitative imaging spectroscopy and radiation counting methods.
Imaging and medical
The Imaging and Medical beamline (IMBL) is a flagship beamline of the Australian Synchrotron built with considerable support from the NHMRC. It is one of only a few of its type, and delivers the world’s widest synchrotron x-ray ‘beam’.
Visit the Australian Synchrotron
ANSTO's Melbourne location is home to the ANSTO-owned and operated Australian Synchrotron. The Synchrotron is one of the Australia's most significant pieces of scientific infrastructure.
A little bit of the moon just landed at ANSTO
Research on lunar meteorite and moon crater analogues coincides with Science Week.
Jack the Super Prawn
Jack the Super Prawn lives in the Great Barrier Reef and uses his superpowers to protect the environment. Jack’s main job is to educate young readers on the impact of plastic and other types of pollution and to empower them to find a solution.
Created by Antoine Jaja, Jack’s first two adventure books entitled, “Drastic Plastic” and “Pollution Solution,” are now available in paperback in bookstores throughout Australia, as well as the ANSTO Shop. ANSTO provided scientific input into these stories that are helping to raise awareness of the impact of pollution on our waterways and the marine environment.

Jack the Super Prawn
Jack the Super Prawn lives in the Barrier Reef and uses his powers to protect the environment. With JackVac, he cleans up rubbish and impurities in seawater. With JackCopter, he soars high into the air, where you wouldn't normally see a prawn. Of course, powers like that help Jack find and clear up waste plastic. But Jack's main job is to educate young readers.
Infrastructure - Aerosol Sampling
ANSTO has been using Ion Beam Analysis (IBA) techniques to analyse fine particle pollution samples collected from key sites around Australia, and internationally, for more than 20 years.
