After resolving to help find a cure for cancer as a small boy, he devoted his life to scientific and clinical research in the field of endocrine oncology. He is also the winner of the 2016 Most Respected Czech Abroad competition organized by Czech Radio, which included finalists such as Miloš Forman, Eva Jiřičná or Daria Klimentová. Ahead of the award ceremony, I invited Karel Pacák to Radio Prague’s studio and began by asking whether his popularity had come as a big surprise. encr@radio.cz (Cesky Rozhlas)webmaster@radio.cz (CRo Webmaster) https://english.radio.cz/sites/default/files/images/pacak_karel_0.jpg?timestamp=1590573645 Leading Czech endocrinologist follows his dream in the United States https://english.radio.cz/leading-czech-endocrinologist-follows-his-dream-united-states-8215519 Radio Prague International Radio Prague International radio.prague.int@gmail.com clean 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9
