Czech scientists open laboratory in Boston

The Institute of Organic Chemistry and Biochemistry of the Czech Academy of Sciences is opening a laboratory in Boston. The move puts the institute in proximity to world-leading scientific institutions, such as Harvard University, MIT, and Boston Medical Center. As the first institute of the Czech Academy of Sciences to establish an overseas branch, IOCB will track the latest trends in biomedical research in the very heart of the global scientific community. The launch of the new lab in the United States marks a major boost for Czech science.
