International Symposium on Radiopharmaceutical Sciences 2023 was organized in Honolulu from the 22nd to the 26th of May. Five days full of interesting posters, inspiring presentations and wonderful discussions with new people. We started our conference week with presymposium workshops. In the evening there was the opening ceremony and a welcome reception that really kicked the conference week going.
On Tuesday we had the opportunity to just focus on listening the presentations and exploring the results from the posters but on Wednesday it was our groups time to shine. Anna, Thomas and Edla had their poster sessions on Wednesday evening. More information about their posters can be found here. Friday was also an interesting day since Noora had her presentation about [18F]FPATPP and Simo presented his poster: The synthesis of [11C]phosgene and its use in the synthesis of [2-11C]thymine in the last rapid-fire session. From the rapid-fire session Simo continued to his poster session.
Even though the week was busy, our group had time to explore the island. We visited the Manoa falls, hiked the Diamond Head and enjoyed the many beaches of Hawaii. We also participated a dinner organized by Synthra and met with the SRS ThinkTank.
What a week! =)
