Krishant Deo completed his PhD in Medicinal Chemistry at Western Sydney University. He then went on to join ANSTO as a Radiochemist, where he worked across commercial and research projects, contributing to the development of both therapeutic and diagnostic radiopharmaceuticals, and medical devices.
His expertise includes manual and automated radiolabelling techniques, with a strong emphasis on method optimisation to enhance process efficiency and reproducibility. Currently based at the University of Sydney’s Brain and Mind Centre (BMC), Krishant is leading initiatives to expand the BMCs radiochemistry platform by enhancing infrastructure, streamlining workflows and supporting collaborative research across multiple disciplines.
He aims to facilitate the transition of radiopharmaceuticals from research to preclinical and clinical applications, supporting advancements in diagnostic imaging within nuclear medicine.
