HZB and ANSTO signed MoU
ANSTO is delivering scientific services and products to government, industry, academia and other research organisations.
In May HZB and the Australian Nuclear Science and Technology Organisation (ANSTO) have signed a high-level scientific cooperation agreement. The objective is to establish a framework and terms of cooperation in the field of neutron scattering science, and define the mechanisms for collaboration on the basis of mutual benefit, equality and reciprocity.
Both institutions would like to establish a collaborative research program to take full advantage of the instruments available at HZB and ANSTO and train the staff of each institute.
