Another stop this year — Prague! 🇨🇿

I’ve been awarded a Visegrad Fellowship for a research stay at Charles University! I’ll be joining Prof. Jaroslav V. Burda’s group to work on gold(I) metallodrugs and thioredoxin reductase using QM/MM simulations. 🧬

— Is it going to be a great two weeks of science and collaboration in the V4 region? — Ano. 🤓

🎓🌟 Celebrating Academic Excellence at Charles University! 🌟🎓

I am thrilled to share a remarkable achievement in the academic journeys of two exceptional PhD students, Niklas and Vineet, who have recently passed the prestigious “Státní závěrečná zkouška” at Charles University in Prague, Czechia.
The “Státní závěrečná zkouška” or state examination, is a rigorous test of knowledge and critical thinking in one’s field of study. Passing this examination is not just a testament to a student's academic prowess; it is a hallmark of their dedication, perseverance, and innovation.
Niklas and Vineet, with their profound insights, have both exemplified what it means to strive for and achieve academic excellence.
Their success is a beacon of inspiration for their peers. It also underscores the vibrant academic community and the supportive environment that the university is known for.
As they move forward, carrying the prestige of this accomplishment, I have no doubt that Niklas and Vineet will continue to contribute significantly to their fields, pushing the boundaries of knowledge and innovation.
Please join me in congratulating Niklas and Vineet on this outstanding achievement. Your hard work and determination have paid off, and the future is bright with promise for both of you!

📔 🔬 Celebrating Excellence: Two Years of GAUK Grants at Charles University🌟

We're proud to share that Niklas, one of our PhD students, has secured a GAUK grant for his project in quantum technology, marking the second year of recognition by the Grant Agency of Charles University. This follows last year's grant awarded to Vineet for his innovative work on ion and electron trapping. These achievements highlight the exceptional talent within our team and the pivotal role of GAUK in advancing research.

GAUK supports pioneering scientific endeavors, helping master's and doctoral students at Charles University push the boundaries of knowledge. Niklas's project aims to develop an on-chip point Paul trap to address challenges in quantum computing, while Vineet's research explored the development of an electron-ion system for quantum simulation and computing. Both projects underscore our commitment to leading-edge research in quantum technology.

These consecutive awards from GAUK not only reflect the high caliber of our research but also our dedication to making significant scientific advancements. Congratulations to Niklas and Vineet for their remarkable achievements. Their work exemplifies our drive for excellence in research and innovation.

A tragic day for the Czech Republic
When 14 lost their life quick
Young and old did they take
Leaving an unforgettable mark

After Czech mass shooting, shock, grief and a focus on guns

As police Friday scrutinized online threats of copycat attacks, students at Charles University proposed a simple way to prevent any recurrence: ban guns.

Updated statements of #CharlesUniversity at #Prague. My deep condolences go to the students, colleagues, locals, people!
The Faculty of Mathematics and Physics is at Mala Strana, the other side of the river, and all from there seem to be safe. Info from a colleague working there.
