Microinjection

Transgenic & Archiving Module (TAM): Model Generation

Genetically modified rodent models have become a key tool in basic and biomedical research. The ability to engineer the mouse genome has greatly transformed biomedical research in the last decade. 
Phenotyping

Phenotyping

The genomes of humans, mice and other species have been completely sequenced, yet the knowledge of genome sequences as such does not shed light on questions concerning the functions of these sequences. 

Animal Facility

The Animal Facility Module of the Czech Center for Phenogenomics is based on the latest advances in housing, breeding and care of laboratory mice and rats. 
Mouse tumors

Preclinical Testing

The Czech Centre for Phenogenomics can offer a very broad portfolio of highly standardized assays useful for preclinical studies on rodents including established disease models.

CCP contributes to uncovering a new mechanism of a rare neurodevelopmental disorder

A new study published in Nature Communications has uncovered the mechanism of a rare neurodevelopmental disorder associated with variants in the EHMT2 gene. The research, led by Stanislav Kmoch from the First Faculty of Medicine at Charles University, brought together clinical genetics, genomic diagnostics, molecular and structural analyses, and experimental disease modelling.

8th CCP Phenogenomics Conference: From Gene Function to Precision Therapies

The 8th CCP Phenogenomics Conference brought together leading scientists, clinicians, patient representatives and industry experts to explore how advanced disease models, functional genomics and innovative therapeutic approaches can translate scientific discoveries into meaningful outcomes for patients. Held in Prague on 9–11 September 2026 as part of CCP’s 10th anniversary celebrations, the three-day conference welcomed 321 participants and 39 speakers from the Czech Republic and beyond.

10 Years of CCP

10 Years of CCP – Honouring the People Who Built It: During the 8th CCP Phenogenomics Conference, held in Prague on 9–11 September 2026 as part of CCP’s 10th anniversary celebrations, CCP Director Radislav Sedláček presented special Recognition Awards to three colleagues whose extraordinary commitment has played a particularly important role in the development of the Centre.

About Czech Centre for Phenogenomics

Genetically modified mouse models have become a key tool in basic and biomedical research. The ability to engineer the mouse genome has greatly transformed biomedical research in the last decade. Crucial for this technology is the ability to control the expression of genes of interest. It is possible to increase or decrease gene expression, or eliminate the expression of a gene completely.

Transgenic and gene knockout/knockin technologies have become important experimental tools for assigning functions to genes at the level of whole complexity of organism, creating models of genetic disorders, evaluating effects drugs and toxins, thus helping to answer fundamental issues in basic and applied research.
