🎉✨ Happy Holidays and a Joyous New Year from the Cell Tissue Toxicology Group!✨🎉 We are grateful for the support and dedication of our team, partners, and collaborators! Wishing you all a wonderful holiday season and a prosperous 2025, filled with groundbreaking research!🌟🔬

Check out pictures from this year's #TExkurze at @RECETOX for high school students, organized in partnership with @JCMM_Brno. It was fantastic to showcase our work to young people and meet them!

Congrats to our collaborator @OndrejJurcek on his paper in the high-impact journal Angewandte Chemie and 2024 MUNI Scientist Award! 🎉

Last week,@RECETOX researchers P. Babica, P. Shpet, & K. Dostalova joined @VisegradFund-funded #Cyanometa workshop #5 at the University of Novi Sad 🇷🇸. It was exciting to hear and discuss new #Cyanometa results and to learn about the research and facilities at the university! 👍

🚀Exciting news! A new @COSTprogramme @CyanoAction has been just launched! 🚀 The initiative, involving @RECETOX, brings together experts, end users & stakeholders to develop and use effective tools to combat cyanobacterial water blooms! cost.eu/actions/CA23160/

Antonio Rico Guerrero 🇲🇽 has joined @RECETOX & @ToxCell to pursue a Ph.D. in Environmental Health Sciences, focusing on “Disrupted cell dialogue: Investigating the role of GJIC in non-genotoxic carcinogenesis.” Welcome, Antonio!

🎇 Congratulations to all recipients of International Foundation for Ethical Research (IFER) fellowships, including @ToxCell & @RECETOX Ph.D. student, Eliška Řehůřková! 🎇 ifer.org/

Happy #Oct4 a.k.a. #PluripotencyDay! 🌟 Today we celebrate the incredible potential of stem cells to transform medicine, drug research or toxicology. Let’s honor the scientists pushing the boundaries of stem cell research! 🧬🔬 #StemCells #MedicalResearch #Innovation #Toxicology

🎉 At the end of June 2024, the five-year international project @OBERON_4EU was completed. 💡The project aimed to understand and identify impacts of environmental EDCs on metabolic diseases. ➡ @RECETOX was involved at several levels. 📌 lnkd.in/eKCwHZWZ

📰 Interview (in CZ) with high school student *Klára Synková*, whose high school science project at RECETOX (supervised by @iva_s17 and co-supervised by Eliška Sychrová and Eliška Řehůřková) was awarded 3rd place in the Czech national "SOČ" finals 🥉 🎇 recetox.muni.cz/o-nas/novink…

From Sep 11-13, 2024, the Visegrad Fund-sponsored 4th CYANOMETA workshop at University in Košice, Slovakia 🇸🇰, focused on isolating cyanobacterial metabolites, phytochemistry, hands-on practice, and a tour of the botanical garden. 👇More info👇 cyanometa.project.uj.edu.pl/…

🌟 Congrats to Anna Pospíšilová for completing her MSc in Experimental Animal Biology and Immunology! Her diploma thesis "In vitro models to study testicular steroidogenesis" done @RECETOX was sup'd by @iva_s17 + co-sup'd by Dr. M. Ješeta and Dr. J. Navrátilová. Fantastic work!👏

🎉 Kudos to Robin Durník for defending his thesis "Effects of novel bile acid-based drug carriers in 3D liver in vitro models" (done also at @RECETOX in collaboration between Dr. P. Babica and @OndrejJurcek) and earning his MSc in Biochemistry + 2024 Dean's Award 🏅

🎓Congratulations to Erika Slámová for successfully completing her MSc in Mol Biol & Genetics! Her thesis "Applicability of three-dimensional fish models in toxicology, pharmacology and biomedicine" done at @RECETOX was sup'd by @iva_s17 and co-sup'd by K. Součková. Well done! 👏

🎉Big congratulations to Klára Synková for winning 3rd place in the national SOČ (High School Science Project) contest with her work "Male Reproductive Health and Substances Around Us" (sup'd by @iva_s17) ! 🌟 Well done! 👏 youtube.com/watch?v=idf4zGYz…

On June 19-20, @RECETOX hosted #Cyanometa Workshop #3 🇨🇿. This Visegrad Fund supported event focused on the in vitro models and their use in research of bioactive and toxic compounds of cyanobacterial origin. More details below 👇 cyanometa.project.uj.edu.pl/…

🎉 Congratulations to Robin Durník, a Biochemistry student conducting his diploma thesis @ToxCell @RECETOX (supervised by P. Babica and @OndrejJurcek), for receiving this year’s Dean’s Award for the Best Student of Bachelor and Master Degree Programme! 👏 sci.muni.cz/en/current-news/…
