Laura Ondrišová received the League Against Cancer Prague Award 🏆 for a set of articles published in 2024 on how chronic lymphocytic leukaemia (CLL) cells adapt to targeted therapy and on the search for new therapeutic targets.
Our warmest congratulations! 👏
#CEITECScience
Our student Viktória Parobková was awarded the Josef Hlávka Prize to talented scientists under the age of 33 🏆
She gained international recognition for her study on the use of micro-CT technology for non-destructive imaging of microplastics in biological samples.

Plants keep a kind of “backup plan” that allows them to grow a new organism from a single cell. @ceitec.eu scientists discovered that this ability is controlled by an alternative form of one specific gene, which can make a single plant cell start growing into a whole new plant 🌿

Correlative Materials Characterization Workshop 2025
Over two days, 100+ participants explored correlative in-situ and on-surface analysis, tomography, cryo-EM, and multiscale approaches – with inspiring talks, posters, and networking throughout 🔬✨
#CEITECScience
We stress-tested acquisition speed on our favorite flagellated #protozoa. Lightfield 4D captured full volumes of these fast swimmers with ease. When immobilized, the structural detail was impressive.

European Researchers’ Night at CEITEC BUT 🌙
From Theophrastus to modern ceramics — our ceramic research groups & 4Slurries project team showed how ancient knowledge still shapes today’s science. Kids loved our sintering demos!
#ResearchersNight #CEITECScience #Ceramics #ScienceForAll #Transformation
This year, the national theme for the traditional Researchers' Night was “Wealth”, referring mostly to the wealth of knowledge. At CEITEC @vut.cz, we took our own spin at the national theme and prepared a rich programme featuring the wealth of ancient thinkers 🏛️

#CEITECScience in action at the Brno Science & Technology Festival 🚀
Researchers from CEITEC @vut.cz joined the largest science show in Brno – the Festival of Science & Technology 2025 at the Brno Exhibition Centre 🎉
See some impressions.
Researchers have discovered that plant hormones called cytokinins prevent the premature stiffening of cell walls in vascular tissues, ensuring the optimal development of water-conducting tissues 💧
