Research focus

The research group of biophysical and protein chemistry is engaged in preparation and characterization of selected and specific types of proteins carried out using genetically modified organisms. Moreover deals with study of the interaction of selected proteins and their mutual interactions using bioinformatics software. Calculation of structural complementarity of selected proteins and their specific residues. Modern scientific research is focused on the fields of molecular biophysics and structural biology within international projects. The research group, in cooperation with the CEITEC-MU research center, is currently involved in the ADDIT-CE, InterTau and GAMU-Interdisciplinary projects. The research carried out as part of these projects is mainly aimed at improving the diagnosis of pathological changes in patients suffering from neurodegenerative diseases of the brain, such as Alzheimer's disease and Parkinson’s disease.

For students

As part of ongoing research and pedagogical activities, we offer cooperation in independent projects; final projects (students of the programme Chemistry) and bachelor's (students of the programme Chemistry with a view to Education), diploma and doctoral theses. Working on pedagogical topics in physical chemistry, metallic materials or computational modeling is also possible. We will be happy to show you our workplace and discuss the possibilities of involvement in our activities.
