About
The Institute of Molecular and Translational Medicine (IMTM), Faculty of Medicine and Dentistry, Palacký University in Olomouc is a leading Czech translational medicine institute established in 2010. IMTM was established within the infrastructural project initiated by the Palacký University, in close partnership with the University Hospital in Olomouc, the Institute of Chemical Technology and the Institute of Organic Chemistry and Biochemistry, AS CR, v.v.i. in Prague. Our research at IMTM is focused on better understanding of human diseases and development of future medicines and diagnostics.
IMTM operates its own high-performance computing (HPC) facility, designed to handle the demanding needs of cutting-edge research in areas like bioinformatics, chemoinformatics, and genome analysis. Since many of these projects involve sensitive patient data, the entire system is managed solely by IMTM staff—no external vendors or third parties are involved, ensuring maximum data security and privacy.
What sets this facility apart is that much of the software — especially programs that use advanced graphics processors (GPUs) for faster performance—has been developed in-house at IMTM. This means researchers have access to powerful, customized tools that aren't available anywhere else.
