Stronger research link with IAEA with the establishment of Collaborating Centre at ANSTO to support environment and cultural heritage activities

The mining industry is set to benefit from a new Australian capability that uses a nuclear scanning technique to detect the presence of precious metals and strategic minerals in a core sample.

Excellent radiolabelling facilities and the operation of OPAL, a world-class multi-purpose nuclear reactor, enable ANSTO to produce a large range of radioisotopes for Australian researchers in both radiopharmaceutical and environmental areas.

An ANSTO radiochemist has been awarded a scholarship to carry out research at the world-renowned Sloan Kettering Cancer Center in New York.

Read about an ANSTO scientist and their work to prepare for a school project or interview.

On the 9th of December 2022, the Minister for Industry, Science and Technology provided his Statement of Expectations to ANSTO.

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.

Australian clean energy technology company, entX Limited is taking advantage of ANSTO’s unique capacity to generate tailored radioisotope products in the OPAL multi-purpose nuclear reactor to advance a series of innovative projects.

On average, there is now 17 per cent less rainfall across Western Australia’s south-western region than was recorded prior to 1970. This rainfall reduction has economic, social and environmental implications for the region, in particular for the growing capital of Perth, as well as water-dependent industries in the state.

Research can improve both food processing and food product development.

In May 2023, The Honourable Dr Annabelle Bennett, ANSTO Board Chair, shared ANSTO's Statement of Intent with the Minister for Industry, Science and Technology.
