Iain Murray PhD, MIPEM, CSi

Iain is Deputy Head of Radioisotope Physics at the Royal Marsden. He is a state registered clinical scientist who specialises in the physics of both molecular imaging and molecular radiotherapy using unsealed radioactive sources. Before joining the team in 2012, he worked as a clinical scientist at Barts Health NHS Trust and in 2011 was awarded a PhD in radiobiology from Queen Mary University of London.

Current research is focused on the imaging of alpha emitting radionuclides used in molecular therapy such as thorium-227 and radium-223, as well as alternative surrogate techniques, including the use of Fluoride PET imaging to predict the response of prostate cancer bone metastases treated with radium-223. Iain is also a Health Research Authority registered Medical Physics Expert reviewer and regularly assesses clinical trials as part of the regulatory pathway.
