Franklin's research is in the field of molecular imaging, which is the visualisation, characterisation, and measurement of biological processes at the molecular and cellular levels in humans and other living systems. He focuses primarily on the nuclear medicine technique of positron emission tomography (PET) - a non-invasive technique based on using positron-emitting molecular probes coupled with sensitive high-resolution scanners to generate quantitative three-dimensional images. This provides an unequalled ability to quantify and assess biological processes in vivo.
