Being one of the founding countries, Czech Republic is a full member of EATRIS. The national node – IMTM, was built in 2010-2014, followed by formation of the national network by the involvement of leading Czech institutes as EATRIS-CZ partners. The network now provides access to state-of-the-art technologies, helps to share best practices among researchers and employs its multidisciplinary nature to advance biomedical innovations. Recently, the infrastructure was expanded by the International Center for Clinical Research at St. Anne’s Hospital in Brno, joining EATRIS-CZ in 2017, which thus currently amounts to 10 collaborating institutes.
