Event Description
Kirstin Anja Zettlitz, Ph.D., is Assistant Professor in the Department of Immunology & Theranostics, Arthur-Riggs Diabetes and Metabolism Research Institute, Beckman Research Institute of the City of Hope. Dr. Zettlitz’s research interest focuses on the use of antibody-based molecular imaging to guide and improve the development and clinical translation of targeted therapies. This includes antibody engineering to generate antibody fragments with optimized pharmacokinetics and the radioactive (positron-emitters) labeling of antibody fragments for molecular imaging applications such as immunoPET, dual-modality immunoPET/fluorescence and fluorescence-image guided surgery. For radioimmunotherapy, the same antibody fragments are labeled with therapeutic radionuclides (alpha- or beta-emitters).
