A new EU-funded project named InFlaMe, where Ruzek Lab is involved, starts right now! Kick-off meeting of the project takes place in Pavia, Italy 🔬🦠

Members of Ruzek Lab completed BSL4 training at the University of Pécs, Hungary, organized by Gabor Kemenesi! 🦠☣️ #BSL4 #LabTraining #Pécs #ResearchExcellence

We are happy that our postdoc, Alexandra Wilson has been awarded an ERA Fellowship within MSCA call. Her cutting-edge project will provide even more exciting insights into #TBEV pathogenesis and virus-host interactions. Stay tuned! 🥳🤩

Ruzek Lab celebrated Alexandra Wilson's ERA Fellowship award with a nice dinner. Congratulations! 🏆🍽️

Farewell party for Jiří Holoubek from Ruzek Lab as he embarks on his postdoc journey in a BSL-4 lab with Gabor Kemenesi in Hungary! Wishing him great success in this exciting new chapter! 🍀🦠

Our new animal BSL-3 lab is growing fast! 🚧😍🐭

We were excited to welcome our new postdoc colleague, Jiří Holoubek from Ruzek Lab ! He gave a great talk on his scientific background at our mini symposium, where we also heard about a promising new project from VecDeco - Disease Vector and Disease Ecology RG Great science, great start!

Daniel from @RuzekLab delivered an invited talk about tick-borne encephalitis at #ESCMIDGlobal2025 🦠👨‍🏫
