More progress understanding how COVID-19 invades the body
Using the Australian Synchrotron, an international team of researchers has characterised an important interaction that helps the SARS-CoV-2 virus invade human cells.
ANSTO contributes to new research could pave the way for safer and more efficient COVID-19 testing
International research led by Monash University and the Peter Doherty Institute for Infection and Immunity has achieved a proof of concept for a new, fast, portable saliva screening test that uses an infrared light technology to confirm infection with SARS-CoV-2.
Building knowledge of changes in uranium chemistry
A new systematic investigation of the origins of atomic structural distortions in compounds containing uranium has relevance for spent nuclear fuel .
Expertise in characterising materials for lithium ion batteries
Pioneering work on materials for energy production, such as lithium ion batteries, has made ANSTO a centre of specialist capabilities and expertise.

Evidence of earliest Aboriginal occupation of Australian coast
Evidence of the earliest occupation of the coasts of Australia from Barrow Island, Northwest Australia.
In the push and pull of crowds, disordered proteins dance precariously
A collaboration of scientists from RMIT, ANSTO and the CSIRO has published pioneering research that brings new insights into intrinsically disordered proteins and protein regions (IDPs)/ (IDRs) and how they behave under various physiological processes.
Advanced materials research in microgravity earns NASA recognition
A pioneering study led by Professor Junpei Yamanaka of Nagoya City University and an international team that included ANSTO has delivered transformative insights into the behaviour of colloidal particles under microgravity.
Advanced imaging techniques provide earliest evidence of fruit-eating by ancient bird
International palaeontologists have used advanced imaging techniques at ANSTO’S Australian Synchrotron to clarify the role that the earliest fruit-eating birds of the Cretaceous period may have had in helping fruit-producing plants to evolve.

ANSTO scientists would have preferred more about the physics but impressed with Oppenheimer
In part 1 of this two-part series, ANSTO scientists from across the organisation became film critics to review Christopher Nolan’s new movie, Oppenheimer, which explores the life of the director of the Manhattan Project to develop an atomic weapon.
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.
