As the Professor of Radiology and BRIC, my research has been focused on the development and validation of novel radiolabeling methods and multimodality molecular imaging probes for visualization and quantification of various molecular targets related to neuro, cardiac, diabetes, and cancer research. Radiochemistry has been, and continues to be, the central focus of my research. I have obtained comprehensive experience with various radioisotopes including 11C, 18F and 64Cu. I have a broad background on radiochemistry, organic chemistry, multimodality molecular imaging, nano-medicine, and translational research. I have extensive experience on process optimization in order to produce clinically translatable radiopharmaceuticals. I have over 12 years of experience on producing high quality radiotracer for human research application under cGMP conditions.
