“We are expressing the support to the project of the International Clinical Research Center (ICRC), which was initiated on the basis of the close, long-lasting collaboration of the St Anne's University Hospital in Brno with the world-renowned Mayo Clinic in Minnesota, USA, and the bilateral binding commitment of the further development.
The project represents a unique opportunity to connect the Czech Republic, the South Moravia as well as the scientific potential of the Brno universities with the leading world research in the field of medicine and biotechnology. Such a connection bears no comparison in the Central and Eastern Europe. The orientation on the basic research, the first-rate clinical practice and the industrial applications will enable the entrance of the world’s most influential investors within the medical and pharmaceutical industry and will substantially support the quality of education at our universities, its internationalization and linkage with the modern applied research worldwide.
As rectors of the significant Czech universities cultivating research and education in the fields of medicine, biotechnology and instrumentation, we are ready to create the best conditions for the successful activities of the ICRC and the integration of the creative potential of our institutions into the joint research and the educational activities.”
