Jana Lavická, née Křenková, graduated from the University of
Pardubice, Pardubice, Czech Republic (MSc in Analysis of Biological
Materials (2003) and PhD in Analytical Chemistry (2007)) and then
completed a postdoctoral fellowship at the Molecular Foundry, Lawrence
Berkeley National Laboratory, Berkeley, CA, USA (2007-2010). She
returned to the Department of Bioanalytical Instrumentation, Institute
of Analytical Chemistry of the CAS as a Marie Curie Fellow under the
SoMoPro project. Jana was awarded by Otto Wichterle Award (2011) and
Josef Hlavka Award (2012). She was a member of the Council of the
Institute of Analytical Chemistry (2017-2022) and a member of the
organizing committee of the International Interdisciplinary Meeting on
Bioanalysis CECE 2012, 2013, 2014, 2015, 2016, 2018, 2023 (Brno, Czech
Republic), the International Interdisciplinary Conference of Chemical
Analysis APCE-CECE-ITP-IUPAC 2022 (Siem Reap, Cambodia), and the MSB
2024 symposium (Brno, Czech Republic). She is a supervisor of
bachelor, master and doctoral students (Masaryk University, Brno,
Czech Republic). In July 2024, she was promoted to Head of the
Department of Fluid Phase Separations. Her research focuses on
instrumentation development mainly for the coupling of capillary
electrophoresis with mass spectrometry, the design and application of
new (fluorescent) labels for glycosylation analysis, and the
application of nanomaterials for solid-phase extractions in
bioanalysis. Jana has been a PI or co-PI of ten national (Czech
Science Foundation) and international (EU, MEYS) research project
including the international V4+Korea project. She serves as a reviewer
of several scientific journals in the field of analytical
chemistry.
