Are you a PhD student? Do you feel sometimes a little bit lost and unsure how to continue in your study and career? On this Workshop we will help you to identify your short-term and long-term study/career goals and find the way how to achieve them. And most importantly, we will make you feel better because you will see that you are not alone in struggling. We know, that being a PhD student is a hard job and we want to help you to survive it and direct your further career in the way that suits you. During five hours we will create a safe, inspiring and creative space for you and other students to think about and discuss your current situation concerning your study, work and work-life balance and the direction you like it to develop. Above that, we will share tips on how to approach witting your thesis, communication with your supervisor, professional networking, applying for grants, academic mobility and many more...

Communication and cooperation across cultures brings a lot of challenges. Each culture has some values, norms of behaviour and communication rules which people expect to be kept and understood. When people meet together, they usually do not talk about their expectations because they believe the others know. Consequently, cross-cultural misunderstandings appear and people avoid future cooperation or send non-verbal clues to show their disagreement. It often happens that people do not notice or do not understand the signals of cross-cultural conflicts and offence. Therefore, it is necessary to learn about other cultures and change “cultural lenses” while talking about professional matters. The best approach in your culture can be a wrong guidance for other cultures.

The international Mendel Genetics Conference, supported by UNESCO, will focus on current topics in human genetics, with a focus on rare inherited diseases and cancer predisposition, as well as animal and plant genetics, including GMOs and the genetics of bacteria and viruses. Ethical issues related to the diagnosis and screening of genetic diseases, the history of genetic research and the potential of new genomic technologies in medicine and agriculture will also be discussed.
The program of the conference, which takes place from 20 to 23 July, is very topical, scientifically attractive and will feature contributions by outstanding scientists and keynote speakers. Nobel Prize winners in Chemistry Ada E. Yonath from the Weizmann Institute of Science in Israel and Thomas Cech from the University of Colorado have already confirmed their participation, and Paul Nurse from the Francis Crick Institute in London, winner of the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine, will also come to Brno.
The organisers encourage scientists and experts to not hesitate and register. While participants have until 30 June to register, the deadline for submitting abstracts is set to 31 March.

The CEITEC PhD Conference is intended for both the scientific and academic public in the field of life sciences and its aim is to present the research results of the CEITEC PhD School students. The conference program includes presentations of CEITEC´s research results of the 4th year students and poster presentations of the students of the 3rd year and higher. We believe that you will be interested in the CEITEC PhD Conference program and that you will come to support the students, talk to them about their research topics and learn more about the scientific directions and results of all students.
