From 26th April 2010 to 21st May 2010 in the Institute gallery of IMC AS CR, an exhibition Martin Janíček:Voice calligraphy takes place
77 PMM Conference Polymers in Medicine is to be held on 8.-12. July 2012.
74 PMM conference Contemporary Ways to Tailor-made Polymers: 18 - 22 July 2010
| Supervisor ((Consultant)) | Eduard Brynda, PhD |

| Topic | Artificial biomolecular assemblies capable of controlling growth of cells on polymer scaffoldes applied in tissue engineering |
| Annotation | A goal of the work is to utilize interactions between biological macromolecules for the preparation of molecular assemblies which would mimic biological structures, such as, extrecellular matrix or fibrin networks, supporting selectively cell adhesion proliferation, and differentiation. The work will be focused, particularly, on the development of structures for seeding endothelial cells on lumen of blood vessel prostheses and on coating surface of inner pores in polymer scaffolds for growing three-dimensional tissue grafts applicable to the replacement of damaged spinal cord or blod vessel wall. The formation of the assemblies will be observed in situ using IR reflection spectroscopy and surface plasmon resonance (SPR). Their morphology will be studied by atomic force microscopy (AFM) and electron microscopy. Growth of the cells on the developed structures will be continuously evaluated by collaborators at Institute of Physiology AS CR and Institute of Experimental Medicine AS CR. |
