We are delighted to congratulate @MagdalenaKozli on the successful defense of her Ph.D. yesterday!
Not only her scientific work in our group made this dissertation possible, but also her six‑month research stay in the @pkselbo group, whom we would like to thank once again!

Another milestone for our group! 🎉
@MagdalenaKozli has just printed her dissertation thesis—congratulations on this tremendous achievement.

Now only a “minor” step remains: defending her Ph.D. at the end of the month, on April 27, 2026. We’re keeping our fingers crossed!

The 1st PanEuCOPT Action Conference is behind us…
It was truly wonderful to strengthen existing relationships, forge new ones, and, above all, be part of a vibrant community engaged in discussions around a shared focus: PDI !!!

During these cold winter days, it is nice to look back on the summer, when all 3 of our doctoral students participated in the ESP 2025 Congress in Bari (IT), with their poster presentations on PDT, PCI and PDI. We thank @EurSocPhotobiol for the opportunity to present our work!

Something to gain strength for tomorrow’s conference in Toruń

[Biomedical Applications of Photoactive Compounds @GoPhotoBioMed]

Our group leader was invited as a plenary speaker at the conference in Toruń. He will present our latest finds in PDT, especially from antimicrobial PDT project funded by @agentura_azvcr .

Magdaléna Kozlíková will present a poster on 2D and 3D tumor models for PDT.

A wonderful and inspiring ICPP-13 conference at @NiagaraFallsUSA is almost over. We are looking forward to the next one in Kyoto, 2026. @SPP_Office #Science

[Biomedical Applications of Photoactive Compounds @GoPhotoBioMed]

Thank @SPP_Office for the opportunity to have a talk about our PDT project!

[Biomedical Applications of Photoactive Compounds @GoPhotoBioMed]

Both of our scientific groups from Hradec Králové, Czech Republic preparing for the upcoming ICPP-13 conference at Niagara Falls. @AzaPcGroup A lot of fun coming up!
