Imaging protocol assesses molecular mechanism of work in the treatment of deadly childhood cancer neuroblastoma.

Measurement research undertaken to ensure safe, well-engineered nanoparticles

Research highlights how biodistribution of a toxic substance essential to understand all exposure risks.

ANSTO has safely managed its radioactive waste for over 60 years. Waste is managed in accordance with national and international standards.

Australian and Taiwanese scientists have discovered a new molecule which puts the science community one step closer to solving one of the barriers to development of cleaner, greener hydrogen fuel-cells as a viable power source for cars.

In accordance with section 516A of the Environment Protection and Biodiversity Conservation Act 1999 (EPBC Act), ANSTO is required to provide an annual report that outlines ANSTO’s environmental performance over the period and how ANSTO accords with the principles of ecologically sustainable development.

Analysing the microstructure of paracetamol using synchrotron infrared optical technique provides insights.

Advanced X-ray techniques have revealed new structural details about the specific arrangement of atoms in conjugated polymers, an important class of materials that are used in LEDs, organic solar cells, transistors, sensors and thermoelectric power devices.

There have been significant developments in small modular reactor technologies in 2022. The International Atomic Energy Agency expects small modular reactors (SMRs) to make an important contribution to achieving global climate goals and energy supply security. But with more than 70 SMR designs under development in 18 countries – including innovative reactors that are yet to be licensed and novel methods of modular manufacturing that are new to the nuclear industry – widely deploying SMRs in time remains a tall task.

We are part of the Planetary Science community in Australia

Scientists at ANSTO together with Lithium Australia Limited (LIT) have developed a world-first technology to extract more lithium from lithium mining waste, in a game-changer for Australian lithium industry. 

Hudson Institute of Medical Research and Monash University researchers used synchrotron X-rays produce powerful visualisation of video of changes to blood flow to brain during ventilation in large preterm clinical models.

On 20 July 1969, humans landed on the moon for the very first time. As Neil Armstrong was lowered onto the surface of the moon he made the now infamous statement, “That's one small step for man, one giant leap for mankind”.

An investigation that set out to resolve some of the uncertainty in the sources and quantities of pollutants reaching Antarctica has produced a new experimental technique to identify and characterise recently terrestrially-influenced air reaching Antarctica.
