William S. Morton: The Best Part of Living in Brno? Probably the Tomatoes Through the Window
ERA Postdoctoral Fellow William Morton reflects on two years at CEITEC Masaryk University, discussing research, life in Brno, scientific culture, and international collaboration.
More Data, Less Understanding: An XPS Case Study
XPS is a key surface analysis technique, yet studies suggest up to 60% of published spectra may be misinterpreted. Learn why these errors occur and how better training can improve scientific reliability.
CEITEC Scientists Aim to Increase "High-Speed Microscopy" Up to Fivefold
Scientists from CEITEC BUT and CMI are developing AI-powered high-speed AFM microscopy that could accelerate measurements of live cells and semiconductor chips up to fivefold.
A Rare Genetic Disorder in the Amish Community Helped Confirm a Key Cellular Mechanism
A rare genetic disorder in the Amish community helped researchers from CEITEC Masaryk University uncover a key RNA splicing checkpoint essential for proper genetic information processing.
Bacteria’s Achilles’ Heel – Without a Key Protein, They Multiply Slowly
Scientists from CEITEC Masaryk University reveal a bacterial weakness: without RimM, recovery after stress is slow, opening new paths for targeted infection treatment.
When Proteins Behave Like Spaghetti on a Plate
CEITEC MUNI helps shape a global standard for intrinsically disordered protein research—flexible molecules crucial for understanding cancer and neurodegenerative diseases.
