PhD student Kristýna Javorská

Meet Kristýna Javorská, a veterinarian specializing in exotic animals and a PhD student at the Czech University of Life Sciences in Prague.
Her expertise and dedication led her to a prestigious internship at Ghent University, where she gained valuable experience working with exotic animals, particularly reptiles. What makes her truly special is her ability to successfully balance her career and family—she traveled to her internship with her two-year-old daughter, husband, and their dog.
Today, she applies her knowledge in a veterinary clinic, and her story serves as an inspiration for young families looking to build their careers without sacrificing family life.
