Irene Torres-Espallardo
Senior Medical Physicist dedicated to Nuclear Medicine, Clinical Area of Medical Imaging Hospital Universitario y Politécnico La Fe, Valencia
Dr. Irene Torres-Espallardo is a certified medical physicist with over 25 years of experience in the field of medical physics, primarily dedicated to addressing the clinical needs of Nuclear Medicine Department.
Her research career has focused on the development of PET prototypes, corrections for quantitative imaging, and the optimization of acquisition protocols in molecular imaging. Her PhD was focused on image reconstruction for a small animal PET scanner (MADPET-II). She took part of the european ENVISION Project, dedicated to the development of the quality assurance tools for hadrondtherapy by means of PET and Compton Camera. More recently, her work has expanded to improving the accuracy of dosimetric calculations in radionuclide therapies within theragnostic procedures, with the aim of advancing personalized medicine in clinical practice.
Within the Nuclear Medicine Department of the Medical Imaging Clinical Area, Dr. Torres-Espallardo has coordinated the clinical validation of several prototypes, including PROSPET and CareMiBrain. She is currently involved in the evaluation of emerging technologies such as IMAS (total-body PET) and Helmet (a dedicated brain PET system).
She is also a key participant in the European project AIDER (EURATOM programme), which aims to develop a specialized imaging tool based on Compton camera technology to enhance imaging in targeted radionuclide therapies and enable image-based dosimetry in targeted alpha therapy.
In addition, Dr. Torres-Espallardo coleads the Nuclear Medicine domain within Work Package on High-Technology Medical Resources of the Joint Action JANE-2. This European initiative builds on the achievements of the previous JANE project (2022–2024) and aims to establish seven new Networks of Expertise over the next four years. These networks focus on cross-cutting aspects of cancer care, including complex and poor-prognosis cancers, palliative care, survivorship, personalized primary and secondary prevention, omics technologies, high-technology medical resources, and adolescents and young adults with cancer. Current efforts are directed toward defining present and future expansions in the use of nuclear medicine and their implications for equitable access across Europe.

Antonio López Medina
Pontevedra. Spain Hospital do Meixoeiro
Desde la finalización de mi doctorado, he volcado mi investigación científica en el área de la radioterapia adaptativa basada en imágenes funcionales, tanto de medicina nuclear como de resonancia magnética, y en protección radiológica. He participado en dos proyectos europeos con financiación de la UE (BIOCAPS FP7, SINFONIA H2020), seis proyectos de investigación nacionales con financiación pública (E-IMRT II, LOCALIZA, ARTFIBio, ARTFIbioDTS y HeNeBra) y en tres de ellos como IP o CoIP. Hasta diciembre de 2021 seré CoIP del proyecto HeNeBra y el IP del proyecto SINFONIA hasta septiembre de 2024 (es un proyecto europeo con 14 centros de investigación, liderado por John Damilakis, anterior presidente de EFOMP). También he colaborado en el proyecto europeo HERO llevado a cabo por la ESTRO en calidad de representante de la SEFM ante la ESTRO. Participo como investigador en el 2 ensayo clínico EORTC 1414 y en el subcontrato correspondiente al IISGS del proyecto Tatanka con la empresa SIVSA.
Como socio de la SEFM he participado como tesorero del congreso de Vigo y enlace con la ESTRO en el período 2015-2019 y en la actualidad soy representante de la SEFM en la EFOMP y continúo participando en la redacción del borrador del CORE CURRICULUM europeo del físico médico en radioterapia, elaborado de forma conjunta por la ESTRO y la EFOMP. También me han nombrado recientemente secretario del comité de asuntos europeos de la EFOMP.

Manuel Bardiès
Directeur de Recherches Institut de Recherches en Cancérologie de Montpellier.
U1194 INSERM/ICM/Université de Montpellier
Manuel Bardiès obtained his Doctorate on radiopharmaceutical dosimetry from Toulouse University, France in 1991. He has been developing his research in radiopharmaceutical dosimetry within INSERM (National Institute of Health and Medical Research) since 1992 in Nantes, then in Toulouse (2011), and in Montpellier since 2021.
Manuel Bardiès was one of the founders of the EANM Dosimetry Committee (member from 2001 to 2013, chair 2009-2011). He chaired the EFOMP Science Committee between 2014 and 2016, and is the convenor and the current chair of the EFOMP Special Interest Group for Radionuclide Internal Dosimetry (SIGFRID).
He has been involved in education in various European structures (ESMIT, ESMPE). As coordinator of the Education Council of the French Society of Medical Physics for 10 years, he participated to the Board of the medical physics resident programme in France, and was appointed Professor by the French National Institute for Nuclear Science and Technology (INSTN) in June 2018 (renewed in June 2024).
The group led by Manuel Bardiès is primarily involved in radiopharmaceutical dosimetry, at various scales (cell, tissue, organ). This requires the ability to assess radiopharmaceutical pharmacokinetics in vivo, through quantitative SPECT or PET small-animal imaging or in the clinics. An important part of the research activity involves Monte Carlo modelling of radiation transport. The objective is to improve molecular radiotherapy by promoting patient-specific treatments (personalized medicine).
