M.Sc. Theses Successfully Defended in the Academic Year 2005/2006

Due to the GDPR guidelines, the names of the respective students and supervisors are not listed here, only the titles of the respective theses (along with links to them in the Charles University Digital Repository, where you can find all relevant information). The theses are categorized according to the supervisor's institution and, within each institution, are sorted alphabetically. The majority of theses are written in Czech but all have at least an English abstract. 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.
