On Friday 28 August at 12.00, the grand opening of the newly refurbished corridor at the Department of Paediatric Haematology and Oncology (Motol and Homolka University Hospital, Motol site, 5th floor) took place. The new design of the space was created as part of the Plešouni project, conceived by the artist Eliška Soffer Podzimek, and will now bring a world full of colour, imagination and joy to young patients and their loved ones. The event took place with the significant support of GHC Genetics, which has been providing long-term financial backing for the entire Plešouni project.

The latest issue of GHC Genetics magazine (3/2026) has been published

26. 08. 2026

Dear readers,

The latest issue of GHC Genetics magazine offers a look at the diverse fields of modern medicine in which genetics is finding ever-wider application. In an interview with our colleague Tereza Lackner, we take a look behind the scenes at healthcare reporting and communication with health insurers. Although this is an area that often remains hidden from patients, its proper functioning is an essential part of the day-to-day running of a healthcare facility. The specialist section of the magazine focuses on the genetic links in addiction medicine and the issue of co-occurring disorders, where current findings in the fields of genomics and epigenetics are opening up new possibilities for personalised care. There is also a case report by Dr Kristýna Kroupová focusing on Stickler syndrome, which highlights the importance of interdisciplinary collaboration and the benefits of modern genetic diagnostics in identifying rare hereditary diseases. We also present an article on polycystic kidney disease, which emphasises that clinical diagnosis alone may not be sufficient and that molecular genetic testing plays a crucial role in determining the prognosis and in the care of other family members. We hope you find this issue inspiring.
