Due to the GDPR guidelines, the names of the respective students and supervisors are not listed here, only the titles of the respective theses (unfortunately, these older theses are not available in electronic forms). The theses are categorized according to the supervisor's institution and, within each institution, are sorted alphabetically. The absolute majority of theses were written in Czech. Information on the current and past supervisory activities of individual internal members of the Department of Genetics and Microbiology can be found on the websites of the respective Laboratories.
