Title: Antibody-based PET radioligands for brain imaging

Speaker: Stina Syvänen, Professor at the Department of Public Health and Caring Sciences, Uppsala University.
Stina Syvänen earned her Ph.D. from Uppsala University, followed by a post-doc from 2008 to 2012 at Leiden University in the Netherlands. In 2022, she was appointed as a Professor and currently serves as the head of the Molecular Geriatrics research group at the Department of Public Health and Caring Sciences, Uppsala University. Her primary research focus revolves around translational PET imaging and studies related to drug delivery to the brain, with a specific emphasis on therapeutic approaches for neurodegenerative diseases, including Alzheimer's disease. Additionally, she actively develops innovative antibody formats to improve brain delivery efficiency, applying them both as PET imaging diagnostics and as therapeutic agents. 

Hosted by Vasco Sousa from Division of Imaging Core Facilities, Department of Clinical Neuroscience, KI.

Hot-topics in multimodal imaging" is a seminar series hosted by the Division of Imaging Core Facilities with a focus on multimodal imaging, which will cover the latest research in the fields Neurology, Psychiatry and Cognitive Neuroscience and will give our audience an overview of the state-of-the-art instruments, computational and AI assisted data analysis being applied in the field by top international researchers.
