Monash University is partnering with the Australian Synchrotron and other key institutions to launch a $2.9 million national project – delivering a robotic laboratory capable of drastically speeding up the invention, trials and commercialisation of medicines by Australian researchers.

Consortium will map the 86 billion nerve cells, 100 trillion connections and neurotransmitters in the human brain.

An article in Nature Geosciences has highlighted the power of synchrotron techniques to reveal the inner workings of volcanic systems that could potentially help with predictions of eruptions.

A large international team has provided an understanding of how nanoscale interactions affect the thermal stability of a type of next generation organic solar cells.

This COVIDSafe Plan describes the actions that ANSTO will take to keep our staff, contractors and visitors safe and minimise the risk of the spread of COVID-19 infection.

Research on a rare type of superconducting intermetallic alloy

This week, ANSTO hosted the 10th annual Regional Advisory Safety Committee for research reactors in Asia pacific (RASCAP). This a joint IAEA-Asian Nuclear Safety Network (ANSN) supported forum to foster networking and regional cooperation, and for facilitating use of competencies in the region to cover specific safety issues in research reactors.

A panel discussion was held at Lucas Heights that explored the legacy and future of OPAL, Australia’s world‑class research reactor, and its role in shaping national and global scientific capability.

Detailed molecular structure of silver nanocrystals determined

A team of scientists from The Australian National University (ANU) has discovered how a powerful “weapon” used by many fungal pathogens enables them to cause disease in major food crops such as rice and corn

Event held to mark anniversary of SPRing-8 in Japan.

The National Deuteration facility is assisting with the establishment of a Japanese Chemical Deuteration Facility.

An international team led by scientists at City University of Hong Kong has found flexible metal-organic framework (MOF) with one-dimensional channels that acts as a “molecular trapdoor” to selectively adsorb gases, such as carbon dioxide, in response to temperature and pressure changes.
