Initial Word of the Vice-Dean

Dear PhD Candidates,

It is my great pleasure to welcome you, both our new and continuing PhD candidates, to the new academic year and to our PhD School community. Beginning or continuing your PhD journey is both a challenge and a privilege – a time to push the boundaries of knowledge, develop your research independence, and shape your future career.  As Vice-Dean for PhD Studies, I want to assure you that you are not alone on this path: our faculty, supervisors, and support services are here to guide and encourage you throughout this important stage of your academic and professional development.

In addition to your individual research projects, I warmly invite you to take part in our upcoming events and courses designed to enrich your experience and broaden your horizons. Among them are the Life Science Transfer Academy, where you can explore how to translate your research into practice, and our PhD Day, an excellent opportunity to connect with fellow doctoral candidates, share ideas, and discover new collaborations. I strongly encourage you to seize these opportunities, engage actively with your peers, and make the most of the vibrant intellectual environment we are building together.

With kind regards,

Tomáš Kašpárek, Vice-dean for Research and Doctoral Studies
