Research groups
Research groups at Faculty of Science:

|
Laboratory of Molecular Integrative Physiology in Drosophila (head: Tomáš Doležal)Laboratory uses fruit fly Drosophila melanogaster as a model to investigate inter-organ communication, which regulates the distribution of nutrients to individual organs and cells during various conditions. |
|
|
Laboratory of Early Mammalian Developmental Biology (LEMDB, head: Alexander Bruce)Research in the LEMDB is focussed on understanding the molecular mechanisms that underpin mammalian preimplantation embryo development; specifically the derivation of the first three cell lineages (trophectoderm, primitive endoderm & epiblast) that arise by the time of embryo uterine implantation. We are also investigate the fundamental processes that control the formation of viable mouse oocytes. |
 |
Laboratory of Developmental Biology (head: Alena Krejčí)Laboratory investigates the nutritional/energetic state of a cell as regulator of Notch activity using fruit fly Drosophila melanogaster as a model. |
 |
Laboratory of Comparative Cytogenetics and Genomics (head: Petr Nguyen)Laboratory studies the structure and function of nuclear genomes in insects and other arthropods with emphasis on key questions of chromosome biology and evolution. |
 |
Dmel macrophages squad (head: Adam Bajgar)The group studies the role of macrophages in the regulation of homeostasis in Drosophila |
