🎯Po mimořádném úspěchu prvního dílu minisérie o českém grantovém prostředí z pohledu Czexpata Jakub Tomek, tady máme pokračování 👀 Ach, ta byrokracie! 🗃️ Jestli něčím česká věda opravdu dlouhodobě trpí, je to právě skutečně neskutečná přemíra administrativního zatížení.🥶

Hodit to na doktorandku je teda slušná podpásovka seznamzpravy.cz/clanek/domaci-…

Kauza nešťastné výměny ministra vědy má i světlou stránku. Vzbudila jinak vlažná zájem o problémy české vědy. Využil jsem proto historické příležitosti dočasného zájmu a laicky shrnul, s čím se česká věda potýká, proč, a proč je to problém nás všech. seznamzpravy.cz/clanek/nazory-…

Congratulations to our student Arina Andreyeva who won the best poster prize at the poster session for 1st year Immunology MSc. students at Faculty of Science of Charles University. She works on the development and characterization of a new mouse model of Addison's disease.

I was my pleasure to talk about our current study on whooping cough at Česká televize.

I had to withdraw a manuscript from BMC Bioinf. journal. Submitted on Feb 3, under peer review since Feb 13. My queries trying to figure out what is going on (Apr 4,8,10,22 & May 10,17) were answered with vague excuses, unreliable explanations, or not at all.

Amazing. Congratulations JekerLab and colleagues!

Congratulations to our great former student Nika Horková on winning the Prize for the best paper in basic research awarded by the Czech Society for Analytical Cytometry! csac.cz/cs/souteze/vys…

I enjoyed the traditional Lymphocyte Antigen Signalling workshop in Sienna very much. Our graduate student Valeria Uleri presented her project on LCK in peripheral T cells and I presented our project on early T-cell fate choices.

Happy to share our latest publication, showing that #ABIN1 aka #TNIP1 is a negative regulator of antigenic and co-stimulation signaling in primary CD8+ T cells. tinyurl.com/mr48pr2u Congrats to Sarka and other contributing authors from our lab and from the Czech Centre for Phenogenomics!

We are happy to contribute our bit to this nice story.

Our group FAU Erlangen-Nbg is looking for a PhD student (from Apr/Oct 2025 onwards) to work on vaccine-induced T cell responses within the structured research training group GRK2504 DFG public | @[email protected] Check out the program and indicate our project B8 if interested: virologie.uk-erlangen.de/en/grk2504/app…

Tohle je absolutně šílené a zrůdné. Bohužel to pokračuje i v dalších projektech MŠMT. Nemohu se zbavit dojmu, že je to nějaká vědomá pomsta úředníků vědcům. Každý přece musí vidět, že tohle je neskutečně špatně. Marek Ženíšek Mikuláš Bek

Congratulations to our very talented and hard-working 2nd year PhD student, Anicka Kratochvilova, on her poster being selected as the Best poster of the Bacterial, viral, fungal, and parasitic immunology session (83 posters in total) at the #ECI2024 EFIS in Dublin!

A single ERC StG to Czechia. Honest congratulations to Michal Smetana. No ERC StG in Life sciences this time. Ironic congratulations to Czech policymakers and big academic institutions. MŠMT Marek Ženíšek Akademie věd ČR Charles University Masarykova univerzita

I have just realized that new logos of my favorite science communities EMBO and EFIS are quite similar. upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/comm… efis.org/files/content_…

Happy to be part of this story on FBXO38 and PD1. We did not see any upregulation of PD-1 in FBXO38 KO T cells at the steady state (mostly Tregs) or during LCMV infection (looking at Db-NP396 specific T cells) or upon ex vivo activation.
