    Research Overview

    1. Identification and exploration of novel methodologies for radiolabeling with short-lived isotopes (18F-fluoride and 11C-carbon) by exploiting reaction mechanism using catalysis.
    2. Development of approaches and equipment for high-throughput radiochemical evaluation, development, and automation.
    3. Use of machine learning and artificial intelligence to map chemical space for methodology research and generate novel structures for radiolabeling and biochemical exploration.
