National Institute of Public Health presents advances in genetic research
The National Institute of Public Health (SZÚ) has published the results of its research activities for 2025. The main theme of this year's report is the development and improvement of digital PCR technology, which allows for more precise detection of genetic variants in the human body.
This modern method plays a key role in medicine, as it helps scientists better identify specific genes associated with various diseases. Thanks to the higher sensitivity of this technology, experts can more quickly detect changes in genetic information that have a significant impact on patient health.
The research results were published in a prestigious international scientific journal, which confirms the high standard of Czech science. The new findings have great potential for use in clinical practice, especially in the diagnosis and subsequent treatment of patients in Czech hospitals.
Experts from the SZÚ believe that the introduction of these improved procedures into routine operation will provide patients with more accurate and timely diagnoses. The institute's work thus directly contributes to the development of modern medicine in the Czech Republic and strengthens international cooperation in the field of genetics.
