A virtual event will be held on August 14 to celebrate the life of Dr. Sanjiv Sam Gambhir, PhD, the chief of radiology at Stanford University, who passed away on July 18.
The event will start at 9 a.m. Pacific Time on the Livestream platform. Stanford has also created a video on its website as a memorial of Gambhir's life.
Gambhir performed groundbreaking research on development of molecular imaging techniques to monitor processes at the cellular and molecular level. As chair of radiology at Stanford since 2011, he also mentored many young researchers in radiology and molecular imaging.
