Imaging in Life Sciences Committee
Annual Symposium Synopsys
Imaging, a critically important tool in life sciences is benefiting from the
advances in the development of nano scale particles and systems that improve and
extend the capabilities of imaging techniques. These include novel contrast
agents, quantum dot markers, engineered ligands, and smart particles that enable
imaging down to the cellular, and molecular scales with higher selectivity and
signals that previously possible.
Molecular imaging is a rapidly emerging biomedical research discipline that may
be defined as the visual representation, characterization, and quantification of
biological processes at the cellular and subcellular levels within intact living
organisms.
We invite submissions in each of these areas and related topics. A sample
listing of pertinent topics is listed below. This is by no means an exclusive
list, but aims to give a general overview of this diverse symposium topic.
Topics & Application Areas
- Contrast Agents
- Fluorescent Markers
- Luminescent Particles
- Imaging Probe Design
|
- Pre-Clinical Imaging
- Clinical Applications
- Real-time Visualization of Entire Signaling Pathways
- In Vivo Molecular Imaging

Submit Proposal or Comment to Committee Chair
We encourage you to participate and to submit your interest as either an
Scientific Committee Member or to organize a Scientific Committee*. The
NSTI will provide the infrastructure for each Industrial Committee to
organize and present a focused Symposium at the annual Nanotech
Conference and Trade Show (Nanotech 2008,
Boston, Massachusetts, June 1-5, 2008). Details will be provide upon approval of
proposal.
* All submissions will be reviewed by the NSTI Scientific Committee
Chairs and a timely response will be issued.
