The main goals are :
- Federate, organize and enliven the active community of the chemistry of molecular imaging agents
- By identifying active teams in this field of activity
- By identifying the scientific challenges to face, including in relation to industrial needs
- By federating teams around these challenges
- By identifying active teams in this field of activity
- Promote an interdisciplinary vision of the development of imaging agents
- Coordinate chemistry-biology-imager (inter-disciplinarity)
- Foster synergies between teams in order to develop collaborative research projects
- Identify platforms / expertise available for in vivo evaluation of imaging agents and share this information
- Develop / coordinate a strategy for participation in research programs both at the national (ANR, PIA) and European levels (H2020)
- Give visibility to this academic community, which will help to :
- Facilitate exchanges between academic and industrial actors
- Be an important contact and share quality information to the public and the medical, scientific and administrative communities
