Our Team
Assoc. Prof. Ctirad Hofr, Ph.D.
Principal Investigator
I like to learn which, how, and why biomolecules interact…
My research focus is quantitative description of essential functions of biomolecules using quantitative approaches of molecular biophysics.
I have stayed at Rutgers University, Rockefeller University and
Colorado University in Boulder, USA, where I collaborated on research with the Nobel prize laureate who has discovered ribozym and about whom I learnt at school :)
Achievements and Awards
- Scholarship of King Rudolf II
- Best young investigator of the Institute of Biophysics
- My students obtained prestigious awards of Masaryk University and Brno Ph.D. Talent
M.Sc. Tomáš Brom, Ph.D.
Postdoctoral Fellow
I study how proteins talk to chromatin – preferably in high resolution and with quantitative certainty. My background is in structural biology, but I am most interested in what structures actually do in living cells, especially in the context of genome stability and viral gene regulation. When not thinking about protein complexes, you can find me explaining to colleagues which colors they should use in scientific illustrations, or chasing a small white plastic ball on the floorball field.
Achievements and Awards
- 2025 Prorector’s awards for exceptional results during postgraduate studies
- 2022 Czech-BioImaging Open Access Project
- 2022 Doctoral student grant of Grant Agency of Masaryk University
- 2020 Brno Ph.D. Talent Award
Mgr. Jarmila Mlčoušková, Ph.D.
Postdoctoral Fellow
I have always been fascinated by imaging systems and image processing. Therefore advanced atomic force microscopy techniques became my favorite tool for studying protein-DNA interactions.

Graduate Student
I have always been fascinated by imaging systems and image processing. Therefore advanced microscopy techniques became my favorite tool for studying protein-protein interactions. Every time I look through the lens of microscope and the experiment turns out to be successful, the most rewarding thing is to see the colorful result with my own eyes.
Achievements and Awards
- CEITEC Ph.D. program student
- 2014 EEICT student award in the category - Signal Imaging at Brno University of Technology

I like chemiluminiscence because after using it I can see “good“ results of my all day work…
The most of all, I like our team, which is full of nice people, including me
Major: Biochemistry
I am proud of finishing my bachelor's degree, and so far successfully continuing master studies…
M. Sc. Pavel Veverka
Graduate Student
I like to solve protein-DNA interactions with advanced NMR methods.
Major: Biophysics
I am proud that I can make E.coli to prepare human proteins.

Hi everybody, I just wanna study... Interactions non-specific, my research should be dramatic. If I wanna go to the end, I should be with proteins friend and I come with them hand to hand.
I will be protein's mummy, I promise - my proteins will never be "samy" (in enghlish "alone").
By the way, I'm Claire and I'm always fair ;-)
I am proud of being the Champion of the Czech Republic in dancing.

I'm confused. Why is research called RE-SEARCH? It should be called SEARCH. If it's RE-SEARCH it means it's been done before. So, I am a searcher for telomeric protein interactions :)
