TERACHEM 2026: The Fifth International Symposium on Technetium and Other Radiometals in Chemistry and Medicine

September 22-26, 2026 | Bressanone (BZ), Italy

The fifth international edition of the symposium on Technetium and Other Radiometals in Chemistry and Medicine (TERACHEM 2026) will continue the long-standing tradition of the previous symposia on Technetium and Rhenium in Chemistry and Nuclear Medicine. As always, TERACHEM focuses on recent advances in radiometal coordination chemistry and the latest applications of radiometal-containing molecules in pre-clinical and clinical imaging and radiotherapy.

The Symposium will feature plenary lectures and presentations covering the development of medically relevant radiometals and their application in chemistry, radiopharmacy, and nuclear medicine.

Topics included:

  • Radioisotope Development, Production, and Targetry

  • Chemistry of Technetium and Other Radiometals in Medicine

  • Radiopharmaceuticals labeled with 99mTc and Other Radiometals

  • AI in Radiochemistry

  • Clinical Applications of Radiopharmaceuticals Labeled with Radiometals

Facts and Figures:

  • More than 200 attendees expected

  • Over 40 oral and 20 invited communications

  • 100 posters

  • Travel bursaries available for students and postdoctoral fellows

Pre-Symposium Summer School:

There will be a dedicated program for students and postdoctoral fellows, supported by the University of Padova.

Symposium Committee:

  • C.S. Cutler (USA)

  • R. Schibli (Switzerland)

  • M.C. Chiron (Italy)

  • U. Mazzi (Italy)

  • R. Rossin (Italy)

As in previous editions, the venue is the charming town of Bressanone (BZ), nestled in northern Italy between Lake Garda and the Austrian border. The Symposium will offer a welcoming, informal atmosphere where young scientists and students can engage in meaningful discussions with experts in the fiel
