Great collaboration with INL!!!

[Idaho National Lab @INL]

.@INL researchers produced preclinical levels of scandium-47 (Sc-47) for a preclinical cancer trial @UUtah.⚛️

The breakthrough may enable future diagnostic and therapeutic uses of the isotope in #CancerTreatment.

Nick did great at his first oral presentation at ISRS today!

[Tara Mastren @MastrenLabUtah]

Cametrius presented her first poster at ISRS last night on her results using an astatinated version of PIB for the in vivo study of targeted alpha therapy for the treatment of Alzheimer's Disease!

[Tara Mastren @MastrenLabUtah]

Nick presented his poster on zirconium phosphate nanoparticles for targeted alpha therapy at ISRS last night!

[Tara Mastren @MastrenLabUtah]

Super proud of Cametrius receiving an SNMMI grant for her research!!!

[UofU Civil Engineering @UofUCvEEN]

Nuclear science isn’t just about energy—it’s about public health. Cametrius Warren, a Ph.D. student at @UUtah, is using Targeted Alpha Therapy to fight Alzheimer’s. Her research could change how we treat neurodegenerative diseases.

I've been assigned my first classroom with chalk.... I'm covered in chalk residue... and tips? Also what is a good color/brand that will show up clearly and erase well at the same time?

When fedex shows your expensive radioactive package with a 7 hour half life still at the origin city instead of out for delivery and you have all your animals transferred and ready to go 😒🥺😠.... so many emotions
