Cross collaboration on highly competitive funding for projects and facilities
Radiocarbon dating at ANSTO informs date of oldest known Aboriginal rock art
Radiocarbon dating capabilities at the Centre for Accelerator Science have provided evidence of a 17,300-year old painting of a kangaroo from the Kimberley region.
Distinguished researchers who use synchrotron techniques recognised
Revealing the sources of Sydney’s air pollution
Samples - Infrared microspectroscopy
The Infrared microspectroscopy microscopes can record spectra from a range of different samples; from thin microtomed sections to polished blocks and embedded particles. This section highlights the types of samples that can be analysed using the IRM beamline
Clean water hackathon delivers potential solutions
Sri Lankan students took part in an innovative hackathon to develop novel solutions to a wastewater runoff problem from reverse osmosis water treatment plants.
An innovative way to deliver drugs using nanocrystals shows potential benefits
Monash University researchers have used advanced techniques at ANSTO to investigate the production of new, elongated polymer nanocapsules with a high payload of drug nanocrystals to potentially increase drug targetability, and also decrease dosage frequency and side effects.
Bacteria research set to bolster antibiotic-resistant drug development

Optoelectronic industry to benefit from cheap new chemical production process
Nuclear techniques reveal ‘tunability' of membranes for enhanced electrical conductivity in graphene
Food and health
Consumers want to know that the foods they consume provide health benefits. Food materials science can monitor changes during digestion as well as assist in the development of low-fat products.
ANSTO's innovative approach to treating cancer gets funding
An international team led by ANSTO has been awarded a prestigious program grant from the Foundation for Australia-Japan Studies.
Transistors and NASA's radiation paradox: strength in detection, weakness in space operations
The nature of Metal-Oxide-Semiconductor Field Effect Transistors (MOSFETs) present a fascinating paradox in space exploration. Their strength in radiation detection becomes their weakness in space operations, exposing an Achilles' heel for NASA. Yet, these same devices monitor radiation doses received by humans on earth and in space.
