The DNA single-strand break repair capacity of the mammalian oocytes and embryos Lecturer: Nataliia Dudko, MSc. / Department of Cell Nucleus Plasticity Annotation: The number of de novo mutations in mammalian oocytes and preimplantation embryos is substantially lower than in somatic cells, but the reasons for this phenomenon are unknown. In our study we focus… Více
Basic information The course aims to teach multimodal preclinical imaging techniques, including in vivo two-photon microscopy, in vivo multi-photon-based label-free techniques (SHG, THG, CARS), and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of small rodents. Participants will acquire theoretical knowledge and practical skills in various neuroimaging techniques, with a focus on intravital multi-photon microscopy and MRI principles. Emphasizing… Více

Dear Colleagues, Holotomography is an advanced imaging technique that uses a specialized microscope to capture high-resolution images of biological structures such as bacteria, cells, intracellular structures, or even entire organoids without the need for staining. This method allows for the acquisition of quantitative data, including dry mass measurements and various other parameters. If you have… Více
μLectures is a monthly seminar series designed to enhance researchers’ understanding of microscopy’s fundamental workings and principles. Each session, lasting 30 minutes, focuses on a specific concept or topic within microscopy. The practical information presented aims to deepen researchers’ comprehension of their microscopy experiments, giving them a better overview of the options available and enabling… Více
The mysterious world of experimental (bio)medicine As night falls, our laboratories become a dark and magical place where the challenges of biomedicine become a reality. The darkness that surrounds the building creates a unique atmosphere. The light of microscopes shines through the darkness and reveals the secrets of life at the molecular and cellular level.… Více
“Human Endogenous Retroviruses: Role in Negative Selection of T cells in the Thymus and Pathogenesis of Psoriasis” Our research elucidates the role of human endogenous retroviruses (HERVs) in biological processes related to T cell immunity, autoimmunity, and the pathogenesis of psoriasis. HERVs are ancient viral elements integrated into the human genome. While most of these elements… Více
Single-particle tracking of NMDA receptors at hippocampal synapses Lecturer: Mgr. Petra Zahumenská / Department of Neurochemistry Annotation: N-methyl-D-aspartate receptors (NMDARs) are ionotropic glutamate receptors essential for excitatory neurotransmission. These heterotetrameric complexes consist of two obligatory GluN1 subunits combined with two GluN2 (GluN2A-GluN2D) or GluN3 (GluN3A-GluN3B) subunits. The surface expression and subtype composition of NMDARs are… Více
