Research to be accelerated with synergistic partnership
Imaging at ANSTO supported Curtin University-led research that discovered the oldest 3D heart in a 380-million-year-old fossilised fish
Researchers have discovered a 380-million-year-old heart – the oldest ever found – alongside a separate fossilised stomach, intestine and liver in an ancient jawed fish, shedding new light on the evolution of our own bodies.
Researchers investigate the symbiotic relationship between mycorrhizal fungi and plants
Are landscape changes linked to loss of traditional Indigenous Australian burning techniques?
Research investigates traditional Indigenous Australian burning techniques in managing landscape and reducing fuel loads.
Synchrotron techniques reveal structural details of fossilised fragment of a rare Australian dinosaur skull
This week palaeontologists from Curtin University announced that a specimen from the collection of the Australian Age of Dinosaurs Museum in Winton Queensland as the first near complete skull of a sauropod, a massive, long-tailed, long-necked, small-headed plant-eating dinosaur, found in Australia and other parts of the world.

ANSTO STEAM Club for Girls
The program combines engaging hands-on experiments and activities with inquiry-based learning to inspire curiosity and help support the development of problem-solving in girls.
Enthusiastically delivered by our qualified female educators, the program will provide a supportive environment to encourage girls to become confident and active learners.
The program will also incorporate a tour of ANSTOs important science and engineering facilities in Sydney to reinforce interest in STEM. Participants will have the opportunity to meet some of Australia’s leading female scientists and engineers!
The STEAM Club for Girls builds on the success of the online STEAM Club program that engaged students across Australia from 2020 to 2023.
