Biography
Wawrzyniec (Wawosz) Lawrence Dobrucki is an Associate Professor and Associate Head for Graduate Programs in the Department of Bioengineering with affiliations in the Carle Illinois College of Medicine and the Carle R. Woese Institute for Genomic Biology at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, as well as the Medical University of Gdansk in Poland. He holds a full-time faculty position at the Beckman Institute for Advanced Science and Technology, where he serves as co-chair for the Integrative Imaging Theme and directs the Experimental Molecular Imaging Laboratory (EMIL).
Prof. Dobrucki is also involved in translational bioimaging utilizing his 15-plus years’ experience in the development and validation of novel SPECT/PET radiotracers and multimodal multifunctional contrast agents. He is an active member of the Preclinical Imaging Task Force at the Society of Nuclear Medicine and Molecular Imaging charged with the task to develop preclinical imaging curriculum for medical and bioengineering scientists and to address problems with standardization of small animal imaging protocols. Prof. Dobrucki is a co-founder of a biomedical startup company (PhantomCOR, Inc.) and a scientific consultant for Biobanking and Biomolecular Resources Research Infrastructure Poland.

Research
Research areas:
Bioimaging at Multi-Scale
Biomedical imaging
Cancer
Diabetes-accelerated artherosclerosis
Molecular PET-CT
Research interests:
Multimodal probes for hybrid imaging of cardiovascular pathologies
Pathobiology/animal models for medicine
SPECT-CT
Vascular remodeling
The combination of different imaging modalities and technologies for mapping biomolecular and biological processes within single cell or whole organs has an extraordinary potential for revolutionizing the diagnosis and treatment of pathophysiological disorders, and thus for mitigating the significant social and economic costs associated with the clinical management of diseases.
The focus of Dobrucki’s research is to develop such integrated imaging approaches to noninvasively monitor and track physiologic processes including peripheral and myocardial angiogenesis and remodeling using functional and anatomical imaging modalities including SPECT/PET and X-ray CT, respectively. Such imaging strategies will eventually lead to individualized programs for disease prevention through advanced diagnosis, risk stratification and targeted cell therapies resulting in more successful and efficient health care.
