Molecular and Cellular Imaging enable the visualization of cellular trafficking, cellular function, and molecular processes in living organisms. In the coming years, these rapidly developing disciplines will provide an avenue to translate basic biomedical science to clinical breakthroughs for numerous diseases and cancers, as well as a means to monitor drug targeting and cellular therapies. Carnegie Mellon University and the University of Pittsburgh will host a 1-½ day symposium on Cellular and Molecular Imaging to showcase current cutting-edge research in areas of Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI), Positron Emision Tomography (PET), Optical Microscopy, and Ultrasound. Registration is free, but space is limited. Register today.

The symposium will be held in the Mellon Institute building at Carnegie Mellon University beginning Friday afternoon, April 3rd at 1 p.m. Click here for directions and a local map.
