Radioanalytical chemistry
ANSTO’s Radioanalytical Chemistry (RAC) facility combines techniques in radiochemistry and radiological measurement by alpha spectrometry, gamma-ray spectrometry, and liquid scintillation analysis to deliver radiological assessments.
Finding a balance between killing cancer cells without damaging normal cells

Biological small angle X-ray scattering beamline (BioSAXS)
The Biological Small Angle X-ray Scattering beamline will be optimised for measuring small angle scattering of surfactants, nanoparticles, polymers, lipids, proteins and other biological macromolecules in solution. BioSAXS combines combine a state-of-the-art high-flux small angle scattering beamline with specialised in-line protein purification and preparation techniques for high-throughput protein analysis.
Macromolecular crystallography continues to help elucidate complex protein structures
International collaboration uses cryo-electron tomography to determine the structure of a complex responsible for sorting and delivering cellular cargo.

International Cooperation
ANSTO is engaged in international partnerships in the peaceful uses of nuclear science and technology throughout the world.

Highlights - Magnetism
Highlights of the Magnetism Project.
Radon - the new pollution watchdog
Atmospheric scientists have developed a new technique to measures the naturally-occurring radioactive gas radon for use in accurately categorising the degree of atmospheric mixing.

As a Senior Principal Research Scientist, Henk is participating in several projects applying nuclear techniques to better understand climate changes of the past.

PhD Scholarship - Innovation, Design and Technology
Three-year full-time PhD program is in partnership between the nandin Innovation Centre (ANSTO) and Design Factory Melbourne (Swinburne University). The PhD is based at ANSTO, Lucas Heights, Sydney, NSW.
Explaining glaciers of solid methane and nitrogen on Pluto
Research reports for the first time how solid methane and nitrogen expand in response to temperature changes and resolves an historic ambiguity relating to the structure of nitrogen.
Aboriginal inhabitants of Madjedbebe, northern Australia used different ways to adapt to environmental change
ANSTO has contributed to research that indicated that Aboriginal people had a broad diet and intensive plant processing technologies, allowing them to respond to changes in climate, sea level and vegetation over the last ca. 65,000 years.
The 2023 ANSTO Australian Synchrotron Stephen Wilkins Medal
ANSTO is seeking nominations for the ANSTO Australian Synchrotron Stephen Wilkins Thesis Medal.
Agreement bolsters nuclear science education in South Korea

The risks posed by stormwater runoff can be monitored with thin-film technology
A large collaboration of Australian and New Zealand researchers has established that a thin film technology can be used to monitor stormwater effectively and provides a way to translate the presence of metal contaminants into potential risks to aquatic ecosystems.

Hot Isostatic Pressing
Hot Isostatic Pressing supports advanced manufacturing by increasing a material's density and reducing porosity. This capability complements ANSTO’s extensive suite of instruments and techniques for characterising materials and final products.
Collaborative research brings new insights into radioactive waste, nuclear fuel and nuclear waste forms
ANSTO researchers have demonstrated longstanding expertise in the study of nuclear fuel and radioactive waste with two recent journal articles in a special issue of Frontiers of Chemistry.
Pioneering collaboration advances nuclear medicine
This joint initiative at ANSTO has developed a new capability: solid surface radiolabelling to evaluate Auger emitting sources for next-generation targeted therapy.
