Welcome
Welcome
Welcome to the website of the van Dam research group in the Crump Institute for Molecular Imaging and Department of Molecular and Medical Pharmacology at UCLA. Our group, led by Prof. R. Michael van Dam, focuses on the development of microfluidic technologies and automated systems for radiopharmaceutical synthesis and development, as well as high-throughput synthesis and analysis platforms with applications in cancer research and molecular imaging.
Our research
Our research
Much of our current work is focused on development of technologies to improve the development and production of radiopharmaceuticals, including imaging tracers and targeted radiotherapeutics (Figure 1).
More details of these and other projects can be found on our Research page, and in our Publications and Patents.
