Aditi Mulgaonkar is an Assistant Professor in the department of Radiology at University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center (UTSW), Dallas, TX since September 2022. She earned her doctorate (PhD) in August 2012 in the field of Pharmaceutical Sciences from Virginia Commonwealth University, School of Pharmacy, Richmond, VA. Her doctoral research was focused on drug metabolism/transporters mediated drug interactions and pharmacokinetics. After graduation she pursued a postdoctoral Oakridge Institute for Science and education (ORISE) fellowship from 2012-2013 with the United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA) in collaboration with the Drug Interaction database® (DIDB) at University of Washington, Seattle, WA. The year-long fellowship included an evaluation of the new drug applications approved by FDA in 2012 with respect to drug-transporter/enzyme-mediated drug interactions, and changes in drug pharmacokinetics with organ (kidney/liver) impairment. With her specific expertise in drug transporters and pharmacokinetics she continued to work through 2014 with the DIDB team for the curation and analysis of reported clinically relevant drug transporter based drug-drug interactions. Her interest towards pursuing research in molecular imaging technologies led her to join Dr. Xiankai Sun’s team in the Department of Radiology at UTSW as a postdoctoral researcher in July 2014. Since then, she has progressed in her career at UTSW from a trainee to being a research faculty since 2019. Her research interests include design of efficient radiolabeled probes based on macro-molecules such as metal-based nanoparticles, and monoclonal antibodies for imaging with nuclear medicine modalities such as positron emission tomography (PET) and single-photon emission computed tomography (SPECT). Her research has supported development of efficient translational strategies for diagnosis and/or treatment of cancers and other disease conditions. With her previous experience in pharmacological science, she has advanced her expertise in the rapidly emerging fields of infection imaging, inflammation imaging, and immunological PET imaging. Her research experience spanning over a decade has resulted in over 20 publications in highly reputed scientific journals, &gt; 17 scientific poster presentations at well-recognized international conferences, and &gt; 930 citations. Through her tenure as an academician, Aditi has mentored &gt; 9 student trainees, 4 research staff, and trained other junior peers for conducting research.Aditi is also the Assistant Regulatory Affairs Officer in the Cyclotron and Radiochemistry Program (CRP) at UTSW since 2016. In this role she actively assists in managing the CRP’s quality assurance operations to facilitate production of radiotracers for clinical trials and applications, perform regulatory filings, and maintain facility compliance. Through her career, Aditi has developed a combination of skills in diverse fields including pharmaceutical sciences, radiological sciences, and regulatory affairs, all converging towards achievement of improved patient outcomes. She further wishes to continue her contribution towards improvement in disease management by engaging in the cutting-edge field of imaging science.Sejal Patel is an exceptionally skilled healthcare professional who brings a wealth of expertise in healthcare administration. With a master&#x27;s degree in health administration and certifications in Lean Six Sigma (LSSYB) and Medical Technology (MT-ASCP), she possesses a comprehensive understanding of process improvement methodologies and clinical laboratory operations. Throughout her career, she has held prominent positions in various healthcare organizations, including non-profit Level I trauma center, for-profit acute care hospital, cancer center, and physician-owned, physician-led, and physician co-managed healthcare organizations. In these roles, she has successfully streamlined operational processes, optimized resource utilization, and implemented robust quality management systems.
