Our professionals
Dr. Félix Pareja
Specialist in Radiopharmacy.
Primary focus on radiometabolic therapy (therapeutic radiopharmaceuticals and theragnostic pairs), preparation of PET radiopharmaceuticals, management of externally sourced radiopharmaceuticals, clinical trials with radiopharmaceuticals and validation of related processes, and radiolabeling of cellular elements.
Professional career
PharmD, Complutense University of Madrid (2019).
From 2020 to 2023, he completed his residency as a Resident Intern Pharmacist (FIR) in the specialty of Radiopharmacy at Clínica Universidad de Navarra.
