The memory of Josef Dadok lives on at CEITEC through cutting-edge research in spectroscopy 🔍 On October 4, 2024, Professor Josef Dadok, the founder of nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) in Czechoslovakia and a prominent figure in the field internationally, died in the United States at the age of 98. Professor Dadok worked in Brno in the 1950s and 1960s, where he led the development of the first NMR spectrometers at the Institute of Instrumentation of the Czechoslovak Academy of Sciences, later mass-produced by the national company Tesla Brno, making Czechoslovakia one of the world leaders in this field. In 2013, Professor Dadok was awarded an honorary doctorate from Masaryk University and Brno University of Technology (Vysoké učení technické v Brně) for his outstanding contribution to Czechoslovak science and technology. The National Centre for Nuclear Magnetic Resonance CEITEC - Central European Institute of Technology Masaryk University bears his name in his honour 🔬 Read more here ➡️ https://lnkd.in/drWsjTmk #CEITECScience #NMR #research #brnoregion #CzechRepublic

RICAIP Testbed Brno part of a project that brings new digitalisation opportunities for Czech SMEs💡 Czech companies developing AI-based solutions for the industry can now access significant financial support through the #TEF scheme and the AI Matters EU network. With funding from European and national sources, SMEs can benefit from the cutting-edge infrastructure of the so-called industrial testbeds and expertise from technical universities in Prague, Brno, and Ostrava 🤖 RICAIP Testbed Brno at CEITEC - Central European Institute of Technology Brno University of Technology (Vysoké učení technické v Brně) is one of the three Czech partners in this project, the other two being Czech Institute of Informatics, Robotics and Cybernetics at České vysoké učení technické v Praze and Vysoká škola báňská - Technická univerzita Ostrava (VSB). However, the initiative also opens doors to the entire AI-MATTERS network, connecting Czech companies with 25 partners across Europe 🇪🇺 Read more about the project in our common press release ⬇️ https://lnkd.in/eKA_-erw   #CEITECScicence RICAIP - Research and Innovation Centre on Advanced Industrial Production #AI #Innovation #Industry40 #DigitalTransformation #SmartFactories #brnoregion #CzechRepublic

Scientists discover new mechanism by which chronic lymphocytic leukaemia resists treatment 💉 So far, the only known way of resistance to treatment in chronic lymphocytic leukaemia has been the development of genetic mutations in the DNA of the leukemic cell, allowing it to resist the treatment and continue to multiply 🧬 However, a research team from CEITEC - Central European Institute of Technology Masaryk University and the University Hospital Brno discovered that chronic lymphocytic leukemic cells can resist the treatment by a non-genetic mechanism, i.e. without mutations. The essence of this non-genetic mechanism is the activation of a group of proteins that allow leukemic cells to survive the blockage of an important BCR signalling that plays a role in the survival of leukemic cells.

CEITEC imagining facilities join the Excite Network to explore Earth's materials   The EXCITE network initiative aims to improve the understanding of Earth materials through state-of-the-art imaging techniques. The unique infrastructure connects cutting-edge laboratories across Europe 🇪🇺 The project is funded by the EU’s Horizon 2020 and Programme Horizon Europe to support research, industry and society and its results will be published in an open-access-system 🔓 CEITEC - Central European Institute of Technology Vysoké učení technické v Brně has joined the initiative with several projects focusing mainly on geology. The coordinator for CEITEC BUT is Eva Zikmundová 🔬 "Our main advantage lies in the possibility to combine these two analyses – structural analysis by CT and chemical analysis by spectroscopy – in one place. This allows a comprehensive sample processing and yields excellent results, as our previous projects have shown," explains Eva Zikmundová.
