Tracerlab: Scientific collaboration
We, as Tracerlab, are looking to collaborate with medical researchers, preferably educational institutions, who are looking for the synthetic development and initial in vitro validation of PET/optical/MRI tracers.


Collaborate with medical researchers, who are looking for the synthetic development and initial in vitro validation of PET/optical/MRI tracers.
What we're looking for
We, as Tracerlab, are looking to collaborate with medical researchers, preferably educational institutions, who are looking for the synthetic development and initial in vitro validation of PET/optical/MRI tracers. Typically, we're looking to collaborate with someone who is looking to visualize a process/receptor/enzyme/etc, knows from literature a good chemical entity that could be used (enzyme inhibitor, receptor ligand, etc.) but has no idea how to make it and then modify it towards an imaging modality. Sometimes, this person is uncertain what imaging modality to use and we can help.
We're not just looking to collaborate with medical researchers, but also with preclinical scientists looking for collaboration and students interested in BSc, MSc and PhD programs.
