Monash Centre for Synchrotron Science

The Monash Centre for Synchrotron Science (MCSS) encourages and promotes interdepartmental research programs at Monash University which make use of synchrotron science.

MCSS activities include:

• Providing advice and assistance to researchers
• Developing platform technologies
• Engaging in education programs across the university

The Australian Synchrotron, which came online in 2007, is just over the road from Monash's Clayton campus and we want to help Monash researchers make the most of the unique advantage that our proximity to this fantastic new facility provides.

Watch MCSS Director, Prof Rob Lewis, talk about synchrotron science and the research his team undertakes in this short movie.
