About event
A two-day conference is organized in memory of our esteemed colleague and one of the most prominent and internationally recognized experts in the field of NMR and structural biology, Professor Vladimír Sklenář, who passed away on 13 April 2024. At the Central European Institute of Technology (CEITEC), Masaryk University, he was instrumental in establishing world-class research infrastructures in structural biology, particularly in NMR spectroscopy and electron microscopy. CIISB has established itself at the level of comparable workplaces in Western Europe thanks to his interactions with the Instruct-ERIC, European ESFRI infrastructure, where he acted as a member of the Executive Committee and Council. His tenure at the Faculty of Science of Masaryk University, CIISB and CEITEC was characterized by a great passion for scientific challenges and a great deal of humanity with which he approached his colleagues.
Lectures and contributions by invited speakers will bring back memories of Vladimir’s tenure and will present the latest scientific findings in structural biology and in NMR.
