Lectures and seminars Development of Alpha Synuclein and 4R Tau PET Radiotracers Using Ultrahigh Throughput In Silico Screening
This is part of the “Hot-topics in multimodal imaging” seminar series hosted by the Division of Imaging Core Facilities at the department of Clinical Neuroscience.
Title: Development of Alpha Synuclein and 4R Tau PET Radiotracers Using Ultrahigh Throughput In Silico Screening
Speaker: Robert H. Mach, Ph.D., is the Britton Chance Professor of Radiology and Director of the Radiochemistry Program at the University of Pennsylvania. He is an internationally recognized researcher with over 35 years of experience in the development of PET radiotracers and the use of PET imaging to investigate mechanisms underlying neurological and oncological diseases. His research focuses particularly on dopamine and sigma-2 receptors, cell death, oxidative stress, and the development of PET biomarkers for proteinopathies such as alpha-synuclein and tau disorders.
The seminar will be hosted by Andrea Varrone, Imaging Core Facility, Department of Clinical Neuroscience.
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.
