President: Annemie van der Linden

The former ESMI President Silvio Aime stepped down in in the scope of the societiy’s 8th annual meeting – the EMIM 2013 in Torino and handed over the presidency to Annemie van der Linden from Antwerp, Belgium.Silvio Aime was ESMI President from 2012-2013; Annemie van der Linden will stay in office until the next annual meeting - the EMIM 2014 to be held in Ant-werp from 4-6 June. The new elected Vice President (President Elect) Bernd Pichler from Tübingen, Germany will then take over her duties.

main field of interest – NeuroMRI and BLI of small animals including rodents and songbirds to unravel neurodegeneration, regeneration, plasticity and cognitive processes.

my motivation – I have been involved in ESMI from the very beginning, and would like ESMI – as a young organisation – to provide an active and inter-active science platform for young and senior scientists. I also strongly believe in cross fertilization of different disciplines and I consider ESMI as THE forum for interdisciplinarity and for bringing research from bench to bedside and back. I strongly believe in small animal imaging as the dis-cipline where both basic and applied biomedical research can do really groundbreaking discoveries because of its in vivo ‘entire organism’ ap-proach and I am excited and delighted to see how ESMI develops into THE best forum for small animal (multimodal) imaging.

Secretary: Markus Rudin

The ESMI Executive Commit-tee is completed by the Treas-urer Fabian Kiessling and the Past President Silvio Aime. Together with the elected members of the Council they represent the main governing body of the society: the ESMI Governing Board.

current position and place of workDirector & Chair of the Department of Preclinical Imaging and Radio pharmacy, University Tübingenmain field of interestPreclinical Imaging, Multimodality Imaging (PET/MRI), Probe develop-ment, PET detector researchmy motivation

My aim as Vice President/President Elect of ESMI is to foster the integra-tion of the various imaging research disciplines into ESMI. I will also con-centrate on lobbying imaging science at the EU level and intensify the cooperation with our global partner, the World Molecular imaging Society.

Clemens W.G.M. Löwik left the ESMI Executive Committee after eight years – a special and warm thank you, Clemens!

current position and place of workfull professor for Molecular Imaging and Functional Pharmacology at Insti-tute for Biomedical Engineering, ETH and University of Zürich at Institute of Pharmacology and Toxicology, University of Zürichmain field of researchDevelopment of non-invasive imaging techniques for study-ing structure, physiology, and metabolism of tissue as well as cellular and molecular events in the intact organism, in par-ticular assays for monitoring signal transduction pathways.my motivationImaging and in particular molecular imaging are key enabling technologies in biomedicine both as research tools and ultimately for patient manage-ment. This involves close interactions between basic and clinical researchers across multiple dis-ciplines as well as between academia and industry.ESMI plays a critical role in promoting interactions among the various stakeholders in the field, i.e. academic basic and clinical researchers, industrial partners, regulatory authorities, and funding bodies. An important task on which ESMI has successfully embarked is the educating the next generation of imaging scientists, and activity that has to be strengthened, in particular with regard to the involvement of clinical partners. Given the world-wide activity in the molecular imaging field it is important to have a strong European society that constructively interacts with our partner organisations (WMIS, FASMI).In my past I have collected experience in imaging including molecular imag-ing activities both in an industrial and academic environment and am serv-ing at the councils of both WMIS and ESMI. Given my experience in the field it is a privilege for me to serve in the ESMI Executive Board.

Opening Lecture by Harald zur Hausen | Nobel Prize winner 2008

www.emim.eu

Stadsschouwburg Antwerp

-excerpt from BMBF Nobel Laureate Portraits

Harald zur Hausen

We feel very honoured to wel-come Harald zur

Hausen in Ant-werp giving the Keynote Speech within the Open-

ing Ceremony.

Raising new hopes in the fight against cancer is Harald zur Hausen’s great service to medicine. In 1976 the physician presented the hypoth-esis that viruses could also cause cancer. In his research, zur Hausen

concentrated on the human papillo-ma virus (HPV), a known cause of skin warts. His hypothesis that these wart viruses play a role in the develop-ment of cervical cancer was initially met with scepticism.Zur Hausen and his team made a breakthrough in 1982 and 1983 when they were able to isolate HPV 16 and HPV 18 as the virus types re-sponsible for cervical cancer. Based on these findings, vaccines have been developed against cervical cancer, one of the most common forms of cancer among women.

January 19-24, 2014 at the Ecole de Physique in Les Houches, France

TOPIM 2014 – 8th ESMI Winter Conference

There are two main reasons why in vivo imaging is a key to our under-standing of development:• The first one is that morphogen-

esis leading to the formation of a functional adult is a dynamic process during which the forms and shapes of the organism change continuously over time: these changes are best de-scribed by images.

• The second one is that exploring genetic and molecular positional cues that govern morphogenesis requires long term observations that do not interfere with normal development: the least intrusive method for producing serial and dynamic imaging of an organism is modern in vivo imaging.

Among all domains of biological sci-ence, development is one for which the quality and relevance of obser-vations depend drastically on non-destructive methods. The secret life of embryos and foetuses remained terra incognita for scientists.In the last decades the progress of non-invasive imaging has com-pletely changed our view and in situ medical images of developing life are commonplace:On the research front, immense pro-gress in biophysical and molecular methods to image the development has been obtained recently. The precision of morphogenetic de-scriptions has improved constantly thanks to progress in ultrasonic and magnetic resonance imaging and

further progress are awaited. Cell line-age studies have moved from destruc-tive autoradiographic methods to intravital optical techniques based on genetic molecular engineering, al-lowing mathematical modeling of the trajectories of individual cells. The role of genetic and epigenetic factors in organogenesis is observed directly in cohorts of laboratory ani-mals, from simple multicellular forms of life to vertebrates and mammals. Multispectral and multimodal imag-ing techniques such as optoacoustics, paramagnetic resonance imaging, and other, acquire simultaneously several molecular/morphological points of view of the interactions be-tween the development of an organ or an individual and its environment. Progress in Physics for improved imaging methods and in Math-ematics for the modeling of the images are moving the research on of development from the statute of a descriptive science to a predictive, holistic knowledge, a topic which is not neutral with respect to the future of interventional approaches.
