in the field of solid state physics and biochemistry. Her research focuses on the interaction of the fluorophores and plasmonic nanoparticles in superresolution microscopy. Her PhD, in the field of biomedical engineering, is from the Institute of Physics of the CAS and from the Czech Technical University in Prague, and was awarded for research on fluorescent diamond nanoparticles. Her interests outside work involve her four children.

on pre-term birth using organs-on-a-chip. Previously, she held a WiRe fellowship at WWU Munster where she studied endometriosis and has a PhD in Bioengineering from Imperial College London. She is one of the Czexpats in Science co-founders.

She specialises in health policies, with particular attention on financing healthcare technologies. Currently she is a postdoc at the Faculty of Social Science at the University of Cambridge. Before the CEU, she studied European affairs at the  College of Europe in Warsaw, followed by a Masters degree in politology at the Sciences Po in Paris and in Dijon.

concurrently from the International Agency for Research on Cancer in Lyon (France) and the doctoral school of the First Medical Faculty of the Charles University. Afterwards, she spent some time as a postdoc researching DNA repair at the Centre de Recherche en Cancérologie de Marseille (Marseille, Francie). Upon recently returning to the Czech Republic, she is enjoying a maternity break and searching for further opportunities.

from the Czech Agricultural University. Her PhD research was carried out at the Institute for human genetics of the Helmholtz centre in Munich. Her research focuses on the production of energy in cells and its disorders. She is currently trying to bring science communication closer to students and their older colleagues. At the same time, she is involved in the evaluation of the science, as well as in the popularization of her own activities on social networks and live. Amongst other things, she likes to spend her free time doing escape games, where she would happily lock herself away from her two children forever. She likes tomatoes, but she does not eat peppers.

Her PhD is from the University of Glasgow through the MSCA ITN ‚ParaMet‘ prgramme, where she added the metabolomics to her portfolio. She remained in Scotland for another four years as a postdoc at the University of Dundee. From January 2020, she is based at the Institute of Parasotology of the Biology Centre with the ‚Czech Marie Curie‘ fellowship (OPVVV programme of the Ministry of education, youth and sports). Her ideal way to relax from work is to physically wreck herself by doing orineteering or another sport.

Universitas, Vědavýzkum.cz and other media. She graduated in Clinical Biochemistry at the University of Chemistry and Technology/IOCB CAS and obtained a PhD in neurosciences at the Third Faculty of Medicine, Charles University/IPhys CAS. She was an intern at EMBL Heidelberg and spent a year as a Fulbright Visiting Student Researcher at Northwestern University in Chicago where, in addition to her own research on NMDA receptors, she also focused on science communication.

social epidemiology, public healthcare, epidemiology of malignant neoplasms, social inequality in health.

Before that, she was a postdoc at the IOCB, trying to understand membrane protein complexes with the help of live cell microscopy, biochemical characterisation and structural methods. She studied Natural Sciences at the University of Cambridge, followed by a PhD at the University of Sheffield and a four-year stint as a postdoc at the University of Oxford in the field of DNA repair. Whilst in Oxford, her and her British husband’s two daughters were born and the family moved to Czechia to try it out “whilst the children are still small enough” and five years later they are still here.

In 2016 she, taking her family along, went to do a postdoctoral research stay at the Frank Reidy Research Center for Bioelectrics at the Old Dominion University (Virginia, USA). Her research involved a new method for cell electroporation using a plasma jet, her hypothesis being tested both on cells and on animals. Now she is back in the Czech Republic.

Adam’s main interest focuses on mass spectrometry and its use to study the thermodynamics of nucleic acids and large protein complexes. Currently, he pursue a doctorate at the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology in Zurich (ETH Zurich). As a member of the Czexpats team, he organizes conferences that connect Czech and Slovak expats in Switzerland.

From 2017-2020 she worked in Vienna during her PhD studies. She also contributed to the development of the Complex Portal database as an intern at EMBL-EBI in Hinxton, UK.

Subsequently, he moved to Ghent, Belgium, where he is a postdoc at the VIB-UGent Center for Plant Systems Biology in the group studying plant conductive tissues. He has been awarded prestigious European grants from EMBO and MSCA for his project at the interface between cell and developmental biology.

She studies cancer epidemiology and prevention. She graduated the European Doctoral School of Demography at Max Planck Institute, Rostock and the Autonomous University of Barcelona.
