National Imaging Facility will present a Molecular Imaging and Radiochemistry Showcase at ANZSNM 2022, featuring presentations from a range of global research leaders from Australia’s advanced imaging network.
Horridus, the world’s most complete and finely preserved Triceratops was unveiled to the public (for the first time in 67 million years) last month at Melbourne Museum, as part of their new exhibition, Triceratops: Fate of the Dinosaurs.
Advanced Imaging experts from Monash Biomedical Imaging (MBI) and the National Imaging Facility (NIF) worked with Melbourne Museum to create a digital record of Horridus and further examine how the dinosaur would have walked the earth back-in-the-day for the exhibition’s immersive digital experience.
National Imaging Facility’s University of Western Australia node will grow its capacity with the arrival of a new computed tomography (CT) scanner to expand capabilities for industry, manufacturing and museums who require imaging of large samples.
The National Research Infrastructure Roadmap has been unveiled by the Commonwealth Government, recommending continued investment in NRI, which enables Australia to maintain its research excellence, increase innovation and address emerging research challenges.
The application of advanced imaging will play a critical role for Australia in underpinning fundamental and applied research across disciplines to address domestic and global challenges.
It is required for NIF to be acknowledged in publications and presentations resulting from access to our instrumentation and expertise.
Why?
Acknowledgements are evidence that investments in equipment and people have led to real research outcomes. This helps us to make the case for future investments – both in the next generation of instrumentation, and in the people needed to support user communities working in the facility.
Also, we find papers through online databases by searching for “National Imaging Facility” in the acknowledgements section. If you want to ensure your publications are recognised and promoted, make sure to appropriately acknowledge the facilities that enabled your work.
Acknowledgement is important to the future of research because it tangibly helps sustain world-class imaging capabilities in Australia. Help us to help you!
