Fall Edition 2025

This semester, we are excited to present a series of four seminars featuring five inspiring invited speakers from both the Czech Republic and abroad. Each of them has taken a unique path beyond traditional academia. Drawing on their scientific background, they have built diverse and successful careers that highlight the many ways research skills can be applied in the real world.

The seminars are part of the official BIOTOP course “DSBIOP BIOTOP – BIOtech Talks tO PhD”, and we warmly encourage all PhD candidates and pre-graduate students to join us by registering the course.

The seminars are also open to the wider public. Even if you’re not registering for the official course, you’re welcome to attend — just sign up using the registration form below.
