Research Areas
Bionuclear and Medical Physics
Study in this area is concerned with the development and application of chemistry and physics to biology and medicine. It encompasses the development and evaluation of methodologies for the prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of illness and disease. Research is focused on the development of radiopharmaceuticals and associated dosimetry and radiation imaging concepts. Radiation imaging entails the imaging of all types of ionizing radiation associated with the decay of the radiotracers as well as for the verification and monitoring of external radiation.
