Harvard Medical School
Dr. Hak Soo Choi is an Associate Professor of Radiology at Harvard Medical School and faculty of Dana Farber/Harvard Cancer Center, and the Director of Bioengineering and Nanomedicine Program at Massachusetts General Hospital (MGH). Dr. Choi is a graduate of School of Materials Science from JAIST in 2004, and experienced Gene and Drug Delivery Systems as a postdoc. He extended his research into Molecular Cancer Imaging at Harvard Medical School and Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center in Boston. Since 2008, his laboratory focuses on the development of novel contrast agents for tissue- and organ-specific targeting and diagnosis, and recently joined the Gordon Center for Medical Imaging of Massachusetts General Hospital. Of particular interest is tissue-specific fluorophores, which can be used for targeting and imaging of human diseases by specifically visualizing target tissue with high optical properties and by avoiding nonspecific uptake in normal background tissues.
