As Australia expands its ambitions in nuclear technologies, Associate Professor Elizabeth Williams says the country is grappling with a question that doesn’t have a simple answer.

Professor Lan Fu is using nanotechnology to develop a medical device to detect signs of diabetes.

Scientists have discovered the rare radioactive isotope, iron-60, which is formed in the interiors of massive stars and ejected into space when they explode, in Antarctic ice.

A new nanoscopy technique developed at ANU has uncovered hidden networks used for communication between cells, opening new ways to understand human diseases.

An Australian Laureate Fellowship is helping Professor Hrvoje Tkalčić explore the hidden interiors of Earth, the Moon and Mars, to reveal new insights into how planets evolve and what it takes to sustain life.

The team of ANU Physicists has developed an innovative way to take static devices and make them dynamically tunable with light, an important capability for developing flexible and powerful light-based technology - photonics.

In a new quantum physics experiment, ANU researchers have shown that matter can experience entanglement – an effect Einstein dismissed as ‘spooky action at a distance’.

Quantum physicists at ANU have observed atoms entangled in motion. Their experiment using helium atoms represents a major advancement on similar experiments using photons, which are particles of light.

A team of international researchers have created a first-of-its-kind database of ant data, which combines high-fidelity 3D scans and genetic information for thousands of specimens covering hundreds of species.
