October 2017 - Petr Cígler was awarded Neuron Impuls

Petr Cígler is among the winners of Neuron Impuls supporting the best projects in basic research in Czech Republic. His project is focused on investigation of short microRNA (miRNA) molecules which are present in all cells. Their malfunction can lead to serious illnesses. Petr wants to get a closer look and explore how the miRNA is produced and how it works in living cells.
