Molecular Imaging of Neurodegenerative Disorders (PDF)

Donna Cross, PhD is an Associate Professor in the department of Radiology and Imaging Sciences at the University of Utah with 20 years experience using neuroimaging to study neurodegenerative disease and CNS disorders. Her goal is to make a significant impact on therapeutic and diagnostic options for neurological disorders through imaging. Dr. Cross' research focuses on the innovative use of imaging technology to provide a translational bridge between bench top and patient, and to advance biological discovery though novel applications of imaging and data analysis. She was the Associate Chair for Scientific Abstracts for the Scientific Program Committee of the Society of Nuclear Medicine and Molecular Imaging from 2019-2022 and served as the President of the SNMMI Brain Imaging Council in 2022/2023.







Karina Mosci, MD is chief of the PET/CT department of the Hospital das Forças Armadas Armadas (HFA) and Hospital Santa Lucia in Brasilia-Brazil. She has focused her career in clinical practice, and is very enthusiastic about advancing nuclear medicine applications. Her passion for technology and education led her to work as a consultant and speaker for nuclear medicine and PET/CT for several years. Dr. Mosci's involvement with neuroimaging began in 2009, after a PET/CT neuroimaging fellowship at the University of Washington. She is an advocate for the development of the field through accessible education. She has organized several educational courses nationally and internationally and served as President of Imaging Brain Imaging Council at the Society of Nuclear Medicine and Molecular Imaging.
