The Head of the Bioanalytical toxicology research group will join leading Czech scientists who support free science through the Society.
The Assembly of the Learned Society elected new members at its latest meeting. Among them was environmental toxicologist Klára Hilscherová, who thus joins the already threefold representation of RECETOX in this esteemed institution - Jiří Damborský, Jana Klánová, and Petr Klán.
The Learned Society brings together prominent scientists who strive to maintain and enhance the quality of science and higher education in the Czech Republic. Members of the Learned Society represent a diverse range of scientific disciplines, and their goal, alongside conducting and promoting science, is to develop an ethical and socially responsible debate across fields, popularize science, and foster enthusiasm for it in young generations.
We congratulate Professor Hilscherová and wish her the best of luck in her role within the Society.
Prof. Mgr. Klára Hilscherová, Ph.D.
Klára Hilscherová leads the Bioanalytical Toxicology Research Group at RECETOX. Her research primarily focuses on endocrine disruptors and their potential impacts on health and the environment. She leads major projects, including EU H2020 ERGO and EXPRO grants, and contributes to OECD and NORMAN expert groups. She has published over 165 articles indexed in the Web of Science, gathering more than 6,000 citations. She supervises bachelor's, master's, and doctoral students on a regular basis.
Learned Society of the Czech Republic
For over thirty years, the Learned Society of the Czech Republic has been promoting science both nationally and internationally. In addition to advocating science through lectures, discussions, and media appearances, its members comment on important social and political issues in the Czech Republic and present Learned Society awards to both early-career and seasoned scientific talents.
The meetup, held on September 22nd, 2026, in Cork under the Irish presidency of the EU, addressed a topic of „Strategic Consolidation of the European Research Infrastructure Landscape: Advancing coordinated access and strengthening strategic autonomy over critical research data”.
The conference was organized by the BBCE Centre at Riga Technical University (RTU) in Latvia and brought together representatives of Teaming Centres, European Commission, and European Research Executive Agency.
