OUR HISTORY:

2017
Commencement of the CERAD project - Center for Design and Synthesis of Molecularly Targeted Radiopharmaceuticals (POIR)

Thanks to the co-financing agreement signed between the Information Processing Center - the National Research Institute and NCBJ, the creation of a modern research infrastructure in the field of searching for new radiopharmaceuticals for diagnostics and therapy based on biologically active ligands operating at the cellular and molecular level becomes a reality.

2011
National Center for Nuclear Research POLATOM Radioisotope Centre

Institute of Atomic Energy POLATOM The Radioisotope Center is incorporated, along with the entire IEA POLATOM, into the Institute for Nuclear Studies. The combined institutes take the new name: National Center for Nuclear Research

  

As part of the new entity, the current activity is continued under the name National Center for Nuclear Research Center for Radioisotopes POLATOM
