Take a look at some pictures of last CEITEC Science Mixer

Prof. Šárka Pospíšilová Prof. Jaroslav Koča weres awarded with South Moravian Region Award. Prof. Pospíšilová was awarded for her contribution in the field of science and Prof. Koča for work, activity or conduct that significantly represents the South Moravian Region. The awarding ceremony will be held in historical hall at castle Slavkov–Austerlitz at November 12, 2016.
 

The biologist Pavel Plevka not only deals with the studies of viruses but he also researches the ways how viruses penetrate cells and how new cells are made within the infected cells. “Cells are relatively complicated and it is very demanding to monitor how they change under the influence of a viral infection. In order to improve in evaluating changes, first we want to work with bacteria which are more simple. So, apart from others, we study how the cells of Staphylococcus Aurelius are infected by bacteriophages, i.e. bacterial viruses,” the biologist adds.   

The winner of the award from the International Engineering Fair 2016 goes to a device called LiteScope by a young company NenoVision, which was established as the first spin-off of the Central European Institute of Technology. This additional device to electron microscopes enables not only the imaging of a sample in 3D but also to measure magnetic and electric properties of a sample by the means of atomic force microscopy. 

Information about study, information system, adminstration, grants and informal networking and games. It was CEITEC MU PhD Day. Thank you for comming.

Great speakers, poster session and fine dinner.

The Central European Institute of Technology (CEITEC) BUT has officially launched the full operations of its laboratories. The cutting edge research and development centre, located near the Pod Palackého Vrchem Campus, represents excellence on a European-wide scale. Within the CEITEC project, Brno University of Technology is responsible for research projects focusing on advanced materials and advanced nanotechnologies and microtechnologies.

Congratulation to winners of the Poster Session. Big thanks to all participant for such a great atmosphere during the Nucleic Acids and Immunity. See you next year!

A new method developed by experts from CEITEC Masaryk University and the University Hospital Brno (FN Brno) will help doctors to estimate how patients with chronic lymphocytic leukemia and B-cell lymphomas will react to the latest treatment. It is based on measuring the level of molecules which regulate the activity of B-lymphocytes, i.e. the immune systems cells which are subject to cancerous growth.  This method has been newly patented in the Czech Republic.
