The Research Platform Medical Imaging (RPMI) at the Medical University of Vienna is pleased to report on a highly successful week at the European Molecular Imaging Meeting 2026, organised by the European Society for Molecular Imaging in Ljubljana.
https://e-smi.eu/meetings/emim/past-meetings/2026-ljubljana/
With a total of 12 presentations contributed by RPMI members, this year marks our strongest presence at EMIM to date. We are especially proud to celebrate a Poster Award awarded to Rana Abdelaziz — an excellent recognition of the high quality and impact of our research.
We congratulate all contributors on their outstanding work and thank the entire team for representing RPMI with such dedication and excellence. We look forward to building on this momentum in the future.
