The Faculties of Life Sciences at Masaryk University have joined together to host an external seminar series of luminary scientists. MU LSSS mainly focuses on the currently growing fields that combine modern methods of biophysics, computational modeling, imaging, biochemistry, and molecular biology with “more classical” disciplines such as microbiology, cell biology, physiology, genetics, toxicology, developmental and evolutionary biology, and medicine.

The purpose of the seminar series is to:

  • invite renowned speakers from abroad to Brno to establish and develop professional contacts;
  • create a seminar series of excellence, which will inspire and motivate both scientists and students at MU;
  • promote mutual contacts and interaction between individual labs/departments working at University Campus Bohunice.

This seminar series also includes the Mendel Lectures.

You are cordially invited to attend the MU Life Sciences Seminar Series in 2022!
