Experiments at the Synchrotron enable researchers to produce a 3D structure of a molecular scaffold with role in cancer

The University of Newcastle and UNSW [GW1] are using advanced neutron scattering techniques at ANSTO to carry out research on the structure of polymers in complex salt environments that will ultimately provide a way to predict their behaviour for real-world applications.

Melbourne researchers have used the Australian Synchrotron to produce structure of molecule known to play a critical role in the development and spread of aggressive cancer.

This week women in science from 16 countries came together like never before. Inspiring women, young and old, were the first to complete the W4NSEC (Women for Nuclear Science Education and Communication) program that is designed to support women who are wanting to improve their education and communication skills in nuclear science.

ANSTO’s commitment to Diversity and Inclusion extends to all events we host or conferences we support through sponsorship, expertise (presenting/speaking) or staff attendance as delegates.

ANSTO provides trusted advice, training and consultancy services to Australia’s resource sector.

Dr Rezwanul Haque, now a senior lecturer at the University of the Sunshine Coast, received a national Young Scientist Award for his earlier research using nuclear techniques at ANSTO’s Australian Centre for Neutron Scattering to find cracks and signs of stress in riveted joints in sheet metal in car bodies.

A 'Challenge-Based Innovation' platform at the nandin Innovation Centre is progressing as part of a funding package from the NSW Government and a Memorandum of Understanding with Swinburne University of Technology and Design Factory Melbourne (DFM).

Information about ANSTO’s COVID-19 Rapid Antigen Test Program

ANSTO’s National Deuteration Facility has been providing high-quality deuterated lipids used in the construction of cell membrane models to support research that improves our understanding of how the virus interacts with elements of the cell membrane, a relatively new area of investigation.

Using the Australian Synchrotron, an international team of researchers has characterised an important interaction that helps the SARS-CoV-2 virus invade human cells.

A long-standing collaboration led biomedical researchers from the University of Sydney has recently achieved success with the recent announcement of an innovative bone implant that significantly reduces rejection and inflammation.

Both the Australian Centre for Neutron Scattering  and the National Deuteration Facility share in grants

January 2021 saw the arrival of four shipping containers of radiation safety hutch panels for the first new Bright beamline, Micro-Computed Tomography (MCT). Installation commenced shortly thereafter with the manufacturer, Caratelli SAS, working in conjunction with Victorian-based company, Lycopodium Limited.
