SUMMARY:CIBM Annual Symposium 2026
DESCRIPTION:\n															\nThe CIBM Annual Symposium 2026 will take place on December 2nd, 2026 for the first time at CHUV in the Cesar Roux auditorium. The annual event brings together members of the biomedical imaging community in Switzerland and beyond allowing them to exchange during an exciting and intellectually stimulating day filled with insightful talks and poster presentations.\nHave a look to the previous editions of the CIBM Annual Symposium.

This presentation outlines the conceptual and methodological framework that guides the design of molecules capable of both imaging and treating cancer. Central to this process is the systematic modulation of molecular scaffolds—antibodies, peptides, and small molecules—to achieve optimal target affinity, pharmacokinetics, and dosimetry. Parallel diagnostic and therapeutic variants are generated through controlled changes in radiolabels or chelators, enabling prediction and validation of biological behavior across modalities. Experimental feedback from preclinical imaging, biodistribution, and therapy studies iteratively informs refinement of tracer structure and choice of radionuclide. Beyond molecular optimization, integrated theranostic development increasingly embraces multidimensional strategies—combining radioligand therapy with immune modulation, radiosensitization, or adaptive treatment design based on quantitative imaging data. These approaches represent a shift from empirical discovery toward mechanism-driven engineering of radiopharmaceuticals. The goal is to establish a reproducible translational pipeline where diagnostic tracers not only visualize disease but function as predictive and adaptive tools for personalized therapy.\nBIO\nMargret Schottelius is Associate Professor of Translational Radiopharmaceutical Sciences at the Centre Hospitalier Universitaire Vaudois (CHUV) and the University of Lausanne, Switzerland. Trained as a chemist at ETH Zürich and TU Munich, she has over two decades of experience in translational tracer development and molecular imaging. Her research focuses on the rational design and clinical translation of peptide- and small molecule–based theranostic agents for oncology and immuno-oncology, aiming to bridge (radio)chemistry, biology, and medicine to advance precision radiotheranostics.\n11:00  Of Rodents and Humans​: Novel diffusion MRI approaches to map microstructure and brain activity\n12:00    Lunch Break: Posters and Demos\nAFTERNOON SESSIONS – Chaired by Jonas Richiardi, CIBM DS CHUV-HUG Imaging for Precision Medicine Section\n14:00    Learning from structure: Graph AI in medical imaging\n15:55  Closing remarks\n16:00 – Posters and Demos.\n           – Visits to CIBM infrastructure:  CIMA.X 3T MRI and Nanoscan PET/CT at HUG.\n17:00    Apéro & Networking\n					\n									REGISTER NOW HERE\n					\n
