Research and Special Interests:
I work mostly with radiometals, attaching them via macrocyclic chelators to either peptides or antibodies for treating GBM and other brain tumors. Besides that I distill Astatine (which is also used for labeling peptides/antibodies) and work with radioiodine (I-125/131)
I am also interested in dendrimers, and using them for treating aforementioned cancers.
Other than that I'll help my wife out with some chemistry and nanodiamonds.
