VIDEO: For more than 20 years Japan has used a revolutionary technology to treat cancer. Now, Australian physicists and doctors are joining forces to bring it here. @AINSE_Ltd @ANSTO @WestSydHealth @TargetingCancer bit.ly/2lenJ4e

The next AINSE Study Tour of Particle Therapy in #Japan will be held from 16-19 August 2020. To view an @RiAus-produced video of the 2018 Particle Therapy Tour, and to register your interest for 2020, please visit ainse.edu.au/particle-thera… #protontherapy #carbonions

Just come off nightshift at Austria’s new carbon ion facility, preparing for the day Australia has this advanced cancer treatment option available #stemgotmehere #thisismylab #Scienceweek

I started @ANSTO as Instrument👨‍🔬on AUSANS on 🇦🇺1st Reactor #HIFAR. Now, I’m leading a diverse scientific & technical team at Australian Centre for Neutron Scattering #ACNS Our specialty is neutron research for scientific & industry users @Aus_ScienceWeek #thisismylab #scienceweek

In 1929 Ernest Lawrence, born #OTD, developed an apparatus that used electrical and magnetic fields to accelerate protons to high velocities in a spiral-shaped path before they collided with a target. This new instrument became known as a cyclotron.

Our physicist Dr Dale Prokopovich @sci_dale supports the launch of a new carbon ion therapy treatment service at MedAustron in Austria and gains valuable experience in anticipation that Australia will have a facility one day. ansto.gov.au/news/sharing-e…

Seminar invitation: we'll be talking #space radiation and atmospheric modelling @ACSERUNSW 1pm Wed 5th June! ☢️🛰️✈️🌏 eventbrite.com.au/e/seminar-radi…

This is outstanding news! The Stawell Underground Physics Laboratory will place regional Victoria at the heart of a global race to uncover dark matter

Applications for @AINSE_Ltd’s 2019 Winter School are now open to final-year #undergrad #STEM students from AINSE Member Universities. Go hands-on with landmark research facilities & discover potential research projects with leading @ANSTO researchers. ainse.edu.au/events/winter-…

Our CEO, who is passionate about the benefits of particle therapy for the treatment of cancer, explained the technique to the public at a symposium held in Brisbane #cancer #therapy #future

Izabella Zahradnik, 2018 SAAFE student (Scholarship @AINSE_Ltd @ANSTO @FranceAustralia), today outlined her research into diamond-based microdosimetry for use in proton and heavy ion therapy cancer treatment. 2019 SAAFE 🇫🇷🇦🇺 applications are open now! ainse.edu.au/research-stude…

NEW: #UltimaThule, now in higher-res! 📸 Both lobes now show many intriguing light & dark patterns of unknown origin, which may reveal clues about how it was assembled during the formation of the #solarsystem! @NASANewHorizons bit.ly/MU69-higher-res

Introducing icaro.world - a neat web app to estimate #radiation exposure during air travel ✈️🌎 Thanks & kudos to the dream-team at the Software Development Studio @UTSFEIT for bringing it into the world! @helloicaro #avgeek

Would you like to include a French-Australian exchange program in your early-career research? Applications for the 2019 SAAFE Program (Scholarship @AINSE_Ltd @ANSTO @FranceAustralia) are now open for ECRs in Australia and France. Find out more at ainse.edu.au/grad_students2….

Mark Reinhard receives award for sustained contribution to ANSTO which was given jointly this year in front of family, friends and colleagues.

The joint winners of George Collins Award for Innovation were the gamma radiation imaging team with David Boardman accepting for group to end a splendid night celebrating science

Distinguished Prof Anatoly Rozenfeld celebrates success of former students Dale Propokovich, Andrew Chacon, Mitra Safavi Naeini and Lachlan Chartier at a@ANSTO awards

The last day in Japan was a visit to a Proton Therapy Centre in Tsukuba. Delegates had the opportunity to learn about patient flow in a large hospital. There was also a chance to view treatment rooms and see a rotating gantry in action. @ANSTO @AINSE_Ltd #ParticleTherapyTour2018

An amazing day investigating the benefits of particle therapy at HIMAC in Chiba, Japan. It was a great insight into the technology and research developments being undertaken here. #ParticleTherapyTour2018
