I'm thrilled that Drs. Chopra and Pandey are being recognized by SNMMI for their innovative research. This prestigious honor is well deserved, as both are exceedingly gifted scientists of the highest character and professionalism. I anticipate this will be one of many future recognitions from their peers as they grow into leaders of the field."
