Caryn Lerman: Congratulations to Kai Chen who was awarded R01 funding from the National Cancer Institute

Caryn Lerman, Director of Norris Comprehensive Cancer Center, shared a post on LinkedIn:

“Congratulations to Kai Chen, member of the USC Norris Translational and Clinical Sciences program, who was recently awarded R01 funding from the National Cancer Institute to spearhead research on advancing cancer cell proliferation PET imaging through droplet radiochemistry technology.

Collaborating with experts in microscale radiochemistry, Dr. Chen aims to refine the synthesis of PET tracers tailored for imaging cancer cell proliferation.

This breakthrough promises to facilitate PET tracer production on a large scale. Additionally, Dr. Chen plans to conduct preclinical investigations to evaluate the diagnostic and treatment response monitoring potential of these PET tracers across multiple cancer types, laying the groundwork for future clinical trials.”
