IMPORTANT NEWS - LAB CLOSING DOWN

We will be closing down the Laboratory of Microbial Genomics during 2023. 

We therefore cannot accept any new students, interns, postdocs etc.

The Laboratory of Microbial Genomics studies how gene expression is regulated during the cell cycle and in response to various stimuli, such as nutrients or stress. We want to understand how this regulation affects the organization and dynamics of the cell nucleus, and how it contributes to the maintenance of genome integrity. In our studies, we employ a range of genetic, biochemical, cell biology, computational and genomic methods using predominantly the fission yeast Schizosaccharomyces pombe as a model.

We are part of the Department of Cell Biology, Faculty of Science, Charles University.

We are funded by the the Czech Science Foundation and Charles University.
