Authors:
Salvatore has worked at King’s College London since Apr 2014 under the supervision of Prof Tony Gee, originally as MRC postdoctoral fellow (Apr 2014 - Dec 2017) and from December 2017 as translational radiochemist in the new Centre for Medical Engineering. His active research focuses on developing carbon-11 and fluorine-18 PET radiotracers. He received his Ph.D. in Physics and Chemistry of Biological Systems (2011) from the International School of Advanced Studies (SISSA/ISAS) Trieste. In November 2013, he completed a postdoctoral research fellowship at the Institute of Research in Biomedicine (IRB), Barcelona, Spain, cofunded by EU MarieCurie Actions.
Verena finished her Ph.D. in Bioinorganic Chemistry at the University of Vienna in 2013. Afterwards she was research associate and lecturer at the institute of Biomedical Engineering at the University of Applied Sciences in Vienna. Since august 2016, she works as postdoctoral fellow and PET production manager at the Medical University of Vienna in the working group of Prof. Marcus Hacker. Besides her research interest for carbon-11 and fluorine-18 radiochemistry, she establishes new methods for preclinical evaluation of PET tracers based on spheroid cultures.
