Dear Colleague, Due to strong demand, we are now organizing the 3rd "PET Experimental Design and Practical Data Analysis" Course (from the 6th to the 8th of February, 2009) at the MRC Clinical Science Centre at Imperial College London. The course is part of the Imperial College Graduate Programme and is intended for: - Academics and clinicians that use PET in their research or would like to know more about this technology. - Scientists working in drug companies that commission PET studies or collaborate with PET centres and produce data for the purposes of drug development. - Scientists and technical staff working for companies that produce scanners or commercialize scanner related products that want to understand more about its use in diagnostic medicine and research The course is hands-on and consists in lectures, practicals and computer based exercises. There will be a free afternoon for a -questions/bring in your data-session. After the course the attendees will be able to design, quantify and analyse a PET tracer study by exploiting state-of-the-art PET modelling and analysis software. The trainers are all experienced lecturers from the CSC-PET Methodology Group and are at the forefront of research and technology in the field.
