Laboratory of molecular genetics

Clinical diagnosis

The main activity of the laboratory is clinical diagnosis. From 1997 to 2025, we performed molecular genetic and molecular microbiological and virological examinations in more than 1,000,000 patients, with approximately 220,000 patients being indicated for molecular pathological examination, 450,000 for HPV examination and 400,000 for SARS-Cov-2 examination. We perform molecular genetic and molecular microbiological and virological examinations on cytology and biopsies and in the diagnosis of cancer and infectious processes.

Teaching & Training

Besides clinical diagnostics and scientific and publishing activities, we also provide pre- and postgraduate training at the Faculty of Medicine of Charles University in Pilsen and the Faculty of Science of the University of South Bohemia in České Budějovice.

Staff

In 1997, we participated in the establishment of laboratory of molecular genetics. Currently, its team consists of 15 university specialists and 11 technicians.
