BIOMOLECULAR IMAGING
Dr. J. James Frost's focus in chemistry was nuclear and radiochemistry, which involved instruction in nuclear structure, quantum mechanics, and higher mathematics. Dr. J. James Frost's areas of focus involve fundamental symmetries and broken symmetries that are the basis of many scientific theories and which pervade the natural world.
"This early exposure and training became reanimated when I conceived and wrote a scientific paper in 2018 on symmetry and symmetry-breaking in cancer " ...a belated demonstration of foundational qualities of chemistry.
Then in Jim founded BioMolecular Imaging Consultants where he provides expert advice on anatomic & molecular imaging from entire organ systems to small molecules, peptides & antibodies for use in early clinical and clinical settings, trial design, data analysis, image reading as well as with all FDA liaisons, CROs and academic imaging sites.
