WHEN ENTHUSIASTS HIGH-FIVE WITH EXPERIENCED CONTRACTORS
We understand that we can help
our lab mates even without a white coat
Our enthusiasm for NGS and the study of different life forms has only increased since leaving the lab.
Together, we are in I.T.A.-Interact we've launched a new brand and we're bringing technology to all geeks for research a diagnostics.

WHO YOU WILL MEET
We are geeks fascinated by the possibilities of NGS
What else allow detailed mammoth research,
the creation of new varieties of maize, the immediate
pathogen detection or comprehensive cancer analysis?
Only sequencing - and preferably nanopore sequencing!
TERMITES, PUNK AND ATHLETE IN DECOMPOSITION
„In science I came to a crossroads - internship abroad or family? I decided to stay in the Czech Republic and use my experience from the academic world in a new industry.“
- I've been on many expeditions to the tropics with my colleagues to study termites.
- I play drums in Project Kokrhel
- I'm an ex-football player and future cyclist

AMOEBAS, HANSPAULKA AND LEGENDARY PUB QUIZZES
- in the academy, I spent a number of years in counterstology
- I'm into pub quizzes, you'll find me on the Chanda Peanuts team
- after years of Hanspaulka I know all the football fields in Prague
TAXIDERMY, TERMITES, TATTOOS
„From stuffing animals to termite research to genetics and evolution, my journey through science has been anything but ordinary. I'll help with the automation in your lab, or at least give you a tattoo.“
- I'm certainly not gonna get lost in the molecular biology debate.
- I can help with basic genetics in the lab and enzymes in the gut.
- I know more than 4 languages, and if you don't count Sarcasm and English, that includes R and Python.

Bioinformatic GEEK
Parasites, Bioinformatics and the NFL
- originally a parasitologist and evolutionary anti-histologist
- I have been involved in the design and bioinformatic evaluation of various NGS projects for many years
- in my spare time, I'm an American football fan
CREATIVITY, SCIENCE AND NATURE
„For me, NGS is an innovative tool to gain a deeper understanding of human health or environmental processes.“
- I am a recent graduate of the Laboratory Diagnostics in Healthcare programme with a subsequent study of Toxicology, which gave me a more detailed view of environmental issues
- I like to do work that is not stereotypical, but dynamic and varied, and that gives me the space to find meaningful solutions and further develop myself
- in my free time you can find me most often by the water, at a campfire with friends, or on a hilltop enjoying the views

READING, BAKING AND STRENGTHENING
„I studied Medical Genetics and Molecular Diagnostics and worked in a biobank. I know that NGS is the future and together with the GEEks I want to be part of it!“
- RNA and protein integrity analysis (IHC, WB) and optimization of biological material bank processes
- I am familiar with molecular diagnostic methods and mutational analyses of genetically determined hereditary diseases such as CF, DMD, SMA, FV,...
- in my free time I like to air my head at the gym, at a concert or while baking something good
Science fiction, adventure and NGS
„I grew up on science fiction books, so to be part of a world today where technologies like NGS are real-life science fiction is fulfilling and fun. What used to be distant fiction is now my reality - and to be a part of it is a geek dream come true.“
- I have a broad knowledge of medical genetics and molecular biology
- Outside of science, reading, the wind in my sails and the journey up the wall keep me alive
- I'm drawn to work without routine: finding solutions for diverse projects that are anything but a stereotype

CHEMIE, KYTARA a BIOINFORMATIKA
Má spletitá životní cesta vede od chemie, přes lékařskou genetiku k propojení byznysu a vědy v problematice sekvenačních technologií. Mým cílem je najít způsoby, jak pomoct českým vědcům a biotechnologům realizovat jejich cíle za co nejlepších podmínek.
- volnočasový bioinformatik (třeba jednou bude i doktorát)
- akustický kytarista, co postupně přechází na elektriku
- mé moto je „Nikdy se před ničím neuzavřít“

HOME, SWEET HOME!
NGS GEEKS is a new brand in the I.T.A.-Intertact family
In operation since 1996, I.T.A.-Interact is a skilled scout in delivering cutting-edge technology.
A reputation first earned in flow cytometry with current partners such as SONY Biotechnology or Mindray
is further built in Microbiology, Hematology, Biochemistry and just NGS.
WE REPRESENT HIGH-TECH SOLUTIONS
Your sample may suck,
but with us, you'll get the most out of it.
For the resulting NGS library
we've got a supercharged sequencer.
