Tony Holý Lectures
The Antonín Holý Lecture is held annually, featuring some of the world's most distinguished scientists. This event is dedicated to the memory of Prof. Antonín Holý, whose molecules continue to help millions of patients with HIV and HBV worldwide.
The tradition began in 2015 with a lecture by Dr. John C. Martin, one of Antonín Holý's key collaborators, without whom the drugs based on these molecules would never have seen the light of day.
Since 2017, the lectures have been part of the IOCB Invited Lecture Series.
