Role at ANSTO
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.

Travel Funding
The Australian Synchrotron provides funding support for successful beamtime applicants in the form of travel funding and/or onsite accommodation. Travel funds granted are to be used solely to cover the majority of the cost to travel to the AS facility. The User Office will book accommodation for interstate user groups at the onsite AS Guesthouse.
Nanostructure explains the behaviour of molecules with liquid-like properties
ANSTO has supported research led by a University of Sydney team who gained insights into how oil molecules retain their ‘liquid-like’ properties when they are chemically attached as an extremely thin layer to solid surfaces.
FNCA Meeting
Combining resources and expertise to address climate change in the Asia-Pacific
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.
