About the Presenter: Ruiqing Ni, The University of Zurich
Dr. Ruiqing Ni obtained her B.Sc. in Pharmacy from Fudan University, China. Dr. Ni completed a Ph.D. in Medical Sciences at Karolinska Institute, Sweden (Supervisor Prof. Agneta Nordberg) in 2015, focusing on developing amyloid PET imaging tracers. She visited the National Institute of Radiological Science in Japan under a JSPS fellowship in Japan for half a year researching the development of Tau PET imaging probes. Dr. Ni moved to ETH Zurich in 2016 as a post-doc and is currently a group leader at the University of Zurich & ETH Zurich. Her research focuses on the development of multi-modal imaging biomarkers (PET, MRI, and photoacoustic tomography) for early detection of Alzheimer’s disease pathologies.
