Molecular Imaging and Therapy

The Molecular Imaging and Therapy research group focuses its activity on deepening the molecular bases and developing new areas of research in molecular signaling pathways and the identification of new theranostic targets.

We promote the confluence of basic and clinical researchers, experts in imaging and molecular biology to provide:

Access to knowledge of the biokinetics and biodistribution of the molecules under study
The proofs of concept necessary in the research processes
The identification and quantification of the targets defined by the research groups of our center

In this context, the creation of a translational imaging unit constitutes a basic objective for the development of research aimed at the personalized treatment of patients.

The group is made up of medical specialists in molecular imaging, chemists and pharmacists specializing in tracer synthesis, and biomedical engineers and physicists specializing in image processing and tomography equipment. These are affiliated with different institutions, such as the Vall d'Hebron Research Institute (VHIR), the Vall d'Hebron University Hospital (HUVH) and the Institute of Diagnostic Imaging (IDI).
