            Diana Kmeťková – 11th EAAE Workshop 2026Charles University Environment Centre

            Thanks to the support of Charles University, I had the excellent opportunity to travel to 
            to attend the EAAE Workshop and present our research on how information- and price-based i
            influence dietary choices in university cafeterias. During the event, I participated in a 

            valuable career development sessions, including a panel led by journal editors who shared 
            on successful academic publishing. The keynote lecture by Jesus Barreiro-Hurlé on bridging
            economics and policy also provided valuable insights into the European Union's current pri

            agriculture and food systems. In addition, the parallel sessions on consumer behaviour and
            gave me the opportunity to discuss real-world implementation challenges with colleagues fr


            In my presentation, I introduced our analysis of administrative data from university cafet
            using a difference-in-differences approach. I demonstrated that while information-based an

            interventions can each successfully increase the uptake of plant-based meals, their combin
            paradoxically result in early stock depletion due to cafeteria capacity constraints. The p
            received positive feedback and sparked engaging discussions with experts, including José M

            Universitat de Val?ncia. We explored topics such as the application of the "living lab" co
            behavioural spillovers (for example, compensatory meat consumption at dinner), and the imp
            motivation in implementing such interventions. Overall, the workshop significantly expande

            network as a postdoctoral researcher at the Charles University Environment Center and crea
            opportunities for future European research collaborations.

            Hana Moravcová attended the Hanover Academic Offsite: Workshop & Writing Retreat, held on 

            at Hof Evershorst in Langenhagen near Hanover. The event was a professional training activ
            on academic writing, publication strategies, and the development of concrete research outp
            programme combined structured writing sessions, the setting of publication goals, regular 

            progress, group discussions, and peer support. During the retreat, she worked on an ongoin
            and discussed its further development towards completion and submission to an academic jou
            programme also included discussions on the organisation of academic work, common challenge

            writing, manuscript structure, and science communication. Participation in the seminar sup
            development of systematic academic writing skills, more effective preparation of a publica
            the strengthening of international professional contacts.



            Esraa Sobhe Abdelhamid Mahmoud – Flow Cytometry Summer SchoolFaculty of Medicine in Pilsen

            During my participation in the Flow Cytometry Summer School, I strengthened a core methodo
            essential to our laboratory’s focus on the tumor microenvironment. Our work examines genet
            and immune?cell dynamics driving tumor progression and metastasis, and although our spatia

            immunohistochemistry and whole?exome sequencing have revealed important immune and genetic
            functional characterization remains a key gap. The training provided practical and analyti
            flow cytometry, directly supporting my career development by enabling high?dimensional imm

            functional assay design.

            The event also enhanced the visibility of our research. I presented our main findings to t

            different institutions, generating scientific discussion and interest. This led to potenti
            with a group studying macrophage?mediated T?cell education, a topic closely aligned with o
            direction. Integrating their cell?line models with our spatial and genomic analyses could 

            institutional collaboration and broaden the translational impact of our work.

            Overall, my attendance at the event directly supported my professional growth, increased t

            our research, and initiated meaningful collaborative opportunities that will benefit both 
            and our institution.
            Tania Biswas – EMS School on Mathematical Aspects of Fluid FlowsFaculty of Mathematics and

            It was a great opportunity to attend the EMS School on Mathematical Aspects of Fluid Flows
            closely connected to my research interests. In particular, my research focuses on theoreti
            arising in fluid mechanics and related areas such as fluid–structure interaction and diffu

            models. The school helped me deepen my understanding of the mathematical theory behind flu
            Navier–Stokes equations, and fluid–solid interaction. The lectures and discussions gave me
            and ideas that will be beneficial for my research work. Moreover, it helped me to know abo

            challenges in the field and identify possible directions for my own research.

            Furthermore, I had the opportunity to meet participants from different universities and di

            backgrounds, and to discuss our research interests. These exchanges were valuable to me no
            scientifically, but also for gaining professional confidence and establishing future acade
            collaborations. Overall, attending the school was a very useful and motivating experience 

            growth as a postdoctoral researcher.
