Biography

David L. Morse is an associate Member at MOFFITT Cancer center his education & training at University of Arizona and he had done PhD on Molecular Cellular Biology and Cancer Biology. Most of his branch of knowledge includes: Cancer Imaging and Metabolism, Melanoma Research Center of Excellence, Lung Cancer Center of Excellence, Cancer Imaging and Technology, Chemical Biology and Molecular Medicine Program.

Research Interest

Dr. Morse’s research projects are focused on the identification and validation of cell-surface markers for cancer, discovery of ligands or antibodies specific for binding validated markers, and the development of targeted molecular imaging probes and nanoagents for the detection and treatment of cancer. The ultimate goal of this work is to translate novel probes into the clinic for use in cancer diagnosis and staging, intraoperative margin detection and the targeted delivery of therapy.
