Career

edit

After completing the medicine studies in Erlangen and Munich from 1989 to 1998 and completing his dissertation in 2002, Marcus Hacker was recognized as a specialist in nuclear medicine in 2004. From 2007, he worked as a senior physician for cardiovascular imaging and deputy head of PET/CT at the clinic of the LMU Munich, where he qualified as a professor in 2008 and was promoted to senior physician and deputy director in 2009[2]. In 2012, Marcus Hacker was appointed as an adjunct professor at the LMU Munich.[3][4][5][6] Since 2013, he has been a university professor for nuclear medicine and head of the Clinical Department of Nuclear Medicine at the Medical University of Vienna.[2][7][8]

Scientific Achievements

edit

Marcus Hacker is involved in the establishment of new individualized diagnostic and treatment procedures in nuclear medicine, particularly in cardiovascular, oncological and neuropsychiatric applications. The focus here is on in-vivo tissue characterization and the selection of suitable radiopharmaceuticals for patient-related individual risk assessment.In translational research, Marcus Hacker established new biomarkers for the identification of mechanistic relationships and for translation from cell or animal models to humans.[9][10]

As for October 2024, Marcus Hacker is author of 504 original scientific papers with 14,106 citations (excluding self-citations), and 28 book chapters[11][12][2][13]. The key areas of his academic interest are theranostics, PET and SPECT Hybrid Imaging, and Network- and Prevention Medicine[14][13].
