With profound sorrow, we bid farewell to Vladimír Sklenář, the visionary founder of the CIISB infrastructure. Under his guidance, CIISB flourished, securing substantial support for equipping the core facilities at CEITEC MU and BIOCEV BTU with state-of-the-art instruments and providing subsidized user access. His tireless efforts also ensured funding for the renewal and ongoing upgrades of the instrumentation. CIISB has established itself at the level of comparable workplaces in Western Europe thanks to his interactions with the Instruct-ERIC, European ESFRI infrastructure, where he acted as a member of the Executive Committee and Council.
