We are pleased to announce the first workshop on Emerging Trends in Molecular Imaging, jointly organised by the Molecular Imaging Center (CIM) – University of Turin (UniTO) and the Institute of Biostructures and Bioimaging (IBB) – National Research Council of Italy (CNR) with the support of the Italian Discussion Group on Magnetic Resonance (GIDRM). This in person meeting is planned to take place on April 19th to 20th, 2023 in Turin (Italy).

Molecular Imaging has the ability to visualize and quantify the biological processes in vivo at cellular and molecular level using different modalities such as MRI, Nuclear Imaging, Optical Imaging, Ultrasound, X-ray/CT. Molecular Imaging has a high potential to improve clinical outcome for several diseases allowing earlier diagnosis, correct selection of targeted therapies and non-invasive evaluation of treatment effects. The workshop intends to provide the attendants with the state-of-the-art and future perspectives of emerging technologies/applications in this very promising field combining biology, chemistry, medicine and physics interests.

The meeting provides an excellent platform for scientific communication and networking of attendees from both academia and industry. Both poster and selected oral sessions will give young researchers the opportunity to present their work.
