"Navigating academia as a young mother is hard, but it's also rewarding." In this #ScienceWorkingLife, a #PhD student wrote that her daughters have benefited from her pursuit of higher education. #NationalHigherEducationDay scim.ag/43lgFoO

Extremely grateful for this combined WashU Medicine Mallinckrodt Institute of Radiology and Barnes-Jewish nuclear medicine team, especially the many pictured who have supported my growth and efforts in our theranostics program 🧬🥼

Associate Prof. Vikas Prasad, MD, PhD, is a SNMMI Mars Shot Fund recipient! His project proposal aims to boost PSMA expression for better detection of residual disease and metastases pre-radiation therapy. #MIRresearch mir.wustl.edu/prasad-wins-sn…

ROMAN YOU BEAUTIFUL MAN

Up, up and away! We're installing a Siemens Biograph One PET/MR scanner — the first in the U.S. — in our Center for Clinical Imaging Research. The state-of-the-art scanner combines noninvasive PET with unprecedented MRI detail for faster scans, more info and less radiation.

Debbie Bennett, MD, has been named the Barnes-Jewish Ronald & Hanna Evens Endowed Chair in Women's Health. Congrats to Dr. Bennett, who is leading the way in #breastimaging, community outreach and AI research for breast cancer risk prediction.

Extremely excited to have my team coordinating this trial!

Extremely proud to work with these amazing history making women!

A small glimpse into the oncology-based research that my team works so hard to assist with! 🩻
