Committee Members
Molecular Imaging Approaches for Immunotherapy Response
Mission
Our mission is to educate on emerging molecular imaging techniques to precisely evaluate cancer immunotherapy efficacy, predict treatment outcomes, detect therapy-related adverse effects early, and develop evidence-based guidelines for optimal use of these modalities in patient care.
Committee Members
Multiscale Biological Imaging
Mission
Our mission is to educate researchers on cutting-edge techniques for multiscale biological imaging. This includes the integration of cellular scale data (e.g. spatial-omics) with imaging data from tissues, whole organs or organisms. It includes computational methods that integrate micro- meso- and macro-scale imaging data to derive insights about biological “systems”.
Committee Members
Novel Molecular Imaging Approaches for Vaccines in Infectious Diseases and Oncology
Mission
Our mission is to educate researchers on utilizing innovative molecular imaging techniques to advance vaccine development for infectious diseases and cancer, promoting multidisciplinary collaboration to propel discoveries from bench to bedside.
