ANSTO recognised the contribution of individuals and teams to nuclear science and technology at the 2023 ANSTO Awards Ceremony held on 25 July.

ANSTO scientist, Dr Klaus Wilcken of the Centre for Accelerator Science, used cosmogenic nuclide dating to determine the ages of layered sand and gravel samples, in which seven footprints of the flightless bird, the moa, were found on the South Island in New Zealand in 2019.

Following a decade of imaging to support research and clinical trials at ANSTO and the University of Sydney’s Brain and Mind Centre at Camperdown, two PET scanners have been transferred to the University of Wollongong.

ANSTO’s nuclear medicine processing and distribution facility assembles, loads, tests and distributes a range of nuclear medicine products, including Mo-99. The Mo-99 is dispensed into an ANSTO radiopharmaceutical Gentech® Generator where it decays to Tc-99m.

PNG researcher provides a progress update on an aquaculture project to improve the industry and benefit the local population

The proof of concept for the approach used in the early development of the new gamma-ray imaging system has been published,

ANSTO, Australia’s knowledge centre for nuclear science and technology, connects STEM graduates with industry to work on real-world challenges through its FutureNow Scholarships for 2022.

View the upcoming proposal deadlines for access to ANSTO’s Research Portal. The User Office provides support for research proposals and enables you to leverage our world-class research infrastructure and facilities.

Overlaying a 360° x 90° radiation image onto a panoramic optical image of the scene makes interpretation much easier. The spectroscopic detector at the heart of the imager enables the accurate visualisation and identification of sources across a broad energy range. 

Australia’s new Mo-99 manufacturing facility reaches practical completion

Researchers from Murdoch University and associated collaborators are using ANSTO’s unique nuclear capabilities to gain detailed information about how wheat crops take in administered micronutrients to maximise their efficient use.

Potential new treatments and tools for depression under development.

ANSTO’s Centre for Accelerator Science has been selected as a partner facility in RADNEXT 2030, a major European initiative that provides researchers and industry with access to radiation testing infrastructure for electronics.

International study has revealed a clustering of charged particles in the microgravity environment of space,with implications for the development of materials and better drugs that depend on the mixing of two or more charged particles.
