The DOE Isotope Program Announces its Annual Medical Isotope User Group Meetings

August 14, 2022

In 2022, the Department of Energy (DOE) Isotope Program will host four virtual medical isotope user group meetings focused on the following emerging alpha and beta emitters: actinium-225, astatine-211, lead-212, and new this year, cerium-134.

SNMMI encourages its members to attend these meetings whose purpose is to facilitate free discussion and collaboration amongst users of specific isotopes and to encourage information exchange with their use in medicine.

These webinar-style sessions will feature brief presentations by leading researchers showcasing their latest progress in these emerging fields, followed by interactive panel discussions. Participants are also encouraged to share insights and ask questions during a moderated Q&A segment.
