On Friday, October 19, 2012, the New York
Section of the American Chemical Society (ACS) named Brookhaven
Lab's Chemistry Building an Historic Chemical Landmark, in recognition of the synthesis of 18FDG, the
first successful radiotracer for positron emission tomography (PET) imaging.
We also imaged and experimented with many other data sets, including a complete
first instar larval brain
sectioned and imaged at 5 tilts (a project now being continued in the Cardona
lab).
