The original or an officially certified copy of the certificate of recognition of foreign education must have been uploaded to the electronic application system by 27 June 2025.
In justified cases, if the applicant cannot meet the deadline for having recognition documents uploaded with the electronic application , he/she can ask the dean of the faculty for an extension of the deadline on the APPLICATION form.
Fritz Pregl Medal 2024 was given to prof. Jana HajslovaThe medal's namesake, Friedrich Michael Raimund Pregl, was awarded the Nobel Prize in Chemistry in 1923 for his pioneering work in the field of microchemical methods, which are closely linked to microanalytical applications. In his honour, the The Austrian Society of Analytical Chemistry (ASAC) endowes the Pregl Medal, which is awarded to individuals who have made significant and outstanding contributions to the field of analytical chemistry and in particular to trace analysis of organic compounds.
The Pregl Medal is preferably awarded within the framework of national and international scientific events and symposia in order to link Fritz Pregl's messages with those of the award winners in a wider context.
In 2024, Fritz Pregl Medal was given to prof. Jana Hajslova from the University of Chemistry and Technology Prague, Department of Food Analysis and Nutrition, on ocassion of the 11th International Symposium on Recent Advances in Food Analysis (RAFA 2024), 5-8 November 2024, and presented by president of ASAC prof. Rudolf Krska.
RAFA 202411th International Symposium on RECENT ADVANCES IN FOOD ANALYSIS will take place on 5 - 8 November 2024 in PragueDepartment of Biochemistry and Microbiology FPBT established cooperation within the project financed by the ERASMUS+ program; KA171-HED- Mobility of Higher Education Students and Staff with prof. Dr. Nelso Navarro Martínez from the Universidad de Magallanes in Chile. The project led by Prof. Tomas Ruml, will support the mobility of three employees (10 days) and three students (3 months) in both directions.
Goals of the project is to build up on the existing collaboration to develop a long term and sustainable cooperation both in research and research-based education of master and doctoral students in the framework of joint research and by sharing the opinions in joint meetings, qualification theses or summer schools.
The project expands the recently initiated scientific collaboration on the biological activities of Chilean plants and unique marine organisms by focusing on indigenous, pharmaceutically relevant and yet poorly understood sub-Antarctic and Antarctic macroalgae. Their uniqueness lies in the unusual cultivation conditions in terms of light cycle (polar day/night) and low temperatures. Adaptation to these conditions results in unusual chemical composition, which will be studied in the project. Pharmaceutically relevant is production of compounds blocking the UV light. We will seek another potential activities that could interact in sunscreen lotions. These are mainly antimicrobial, wound healing and anti-inflammatory effects.
