Tommaso Volpi
Gamma Prize PET Contest 2020 Winner, “PET is Wonderful” 2022

Tommaso Volpi is currently a final-year PhD student at the University of Padova, Italy, under the supervision of Prof. Alessandra Bertoldo and Prof. Maurizio Corbetta.
His main scientific interests regard the use of PET kinetic modelling to derive physiological information on brain metabolism and connectivity, the development of non-invasive alternatives to gold-standard arterial input function, and the use of PET-derived information to understand the biological underpinnings of resting-state functional MRI measures.
After the completion of his PhD, he will continue his postdoctoral studies at the Yale PET centre, under the supervision of Prof. Richard Carson.
