Dr. Marek Mraz (Masaryk University and University Hospital Brno, Czech Rep) is interested in the regulation of microenvironmental interactions in CLL and other B cell malignancies, especially B-T cell interactions and B-cell receptor (BCR) signaling. He conducted post-doctoral work with Prof. Thomas Kipps (Univ. California-San Diego), and currently is a group leader at the CEITEC Masaryk University and at University Hospital Brno (Czech Republic; ceitec.cz/mrazlab). He is best known for his work describing the role of non-coding RNAs (microRNAs) in BCR pathway, p53 pathway, and B-T cell interactions. Dr. Mraz also contributed to the understanding of CLL cell migration regulation and regulation, function and targeting of CD20. In 2018 he was awarded the prestigious ERC grant.
