Students from CEITEC VRI succeed in the Leica Calendar Contest

The company Leica, producing advanced microscope technology, opens a competition every year, where scientists enter interesting photographs created by microscopic technology. Out of these pictures a jury of experts chooses 12 photographs, which will be shown in the company calendar for the next year.  Out of a huge number of competing photographs, there are also two pictures by two PhD students - Lucie Nováková and Kristína Kovačovicová - representing the CEITEC Veterinary Research Institute, which have been selected.

You can see their work below and also in the calendar 2014in the months of November and December. Both students are working in the Mammalian Reproductionresearch group headed by MVDr. Martin Anger CSc and are involved in the area of chromosome segregation errors in meiosis in mammalian oocytes.
