Description

ARC Training Centre for Development of Advanced Radiochemical Technologies. This project aims to train the next generation of radiochemists and discover new molecular approaches to harness radioactivity. Novel chemistry exploiting molecular incorporation of radioactive elements, stable chelation of metal radionuclides, bioconjugation methodologies, radioactivity capture via nanomaterials and cages, and the design of new peptidomimetic targeting molecules will deliver technological advances to radiopharmaceutical science. Outcomes will include a highly-skilled workforce and enhanced commercial capacity to meet a rapidly escalating global radiopharmaceutical market. This project will provide significant benefits by securing an internal supply chain and know-how for cutting-edge radiochemical technologies.. Scheme: Industrial Transformation Training Centres. Field: 3402 - Inorganic Chemistry. Lead: Prof Andrea Robinson
