The Andrysik Lab, Faculty of Medicine, Masaryk University and The Krtek Children's Oncology Endowment Fund hosted their second annual fundraising event.
The Andrysik Lab from the Department of Biology, Faculty of Medicine, partnered with The Krtek Children's Oncology Endowment Fund to host a successful fundraising event benefiting children with cancer. Lab members prepared a stand featuring homemade cakes and treats, inviting the community to contribute donations of any amount.
The event drew an enthusiastic response, with generous contributions from numerous participants. Building on last year's achievement of raising 20,000 CZK, this year's event exceeded that success with an even more impressive turnout and support. What began as a single initiative has evolved into an annual tradition.
The organisers extend their sincere thanks to all lab members, foundation volunteers, and everyone in the community who recognised this important cause and chose to support it.
Volunteers from IFMSA CZ Brno transformed the Brno shopping center Olympia into an improvised clinic over the weekend of November 15-16. On the occasion of World Diabetes Day, they offered passers-by a moment to pause, free examinations, and important education on preventing lifestyle diseases.
Students of the Paramedic Science degree programme at the Faculty of Medicine, Masaryk University, have achieved an exceptional success in the SimUniversity competition. The team composed of Michal Bělka, Pavel Krejčí, Šimon Zeljenka and Josef Růžička not only won the local round but also confirmed their excellence in the national finals, where they took first place among teams from all medical faculties in the Czech Republic.
They now face an online international qualifying round, which will determine whether they advance to the world finals in Lyon, France.
