Ladislav Svatoš:
A century in the independent Czechoslovakia and Czech Republic 1918–2018

Abstract

The study focuses on the research work in the field of history of pharmacy. In the years 1918–1948 researchers like Emil Šedivý, Josef Svetozár Novák and Jaroslav Hladík were non-professionals with no institutional support. In the era of socialist Czechoslovakia (1948–1989) special institutions and organizations were established. In universities’ faculties of pharmacy in Brno, Bratislava and Hradec Králové came to existence institutes for history of pharmacy, other centres arose within the Czechoslovak Academy of Sciences and the Czech Pharmaceutical Society. In the period since 1990 the University of Veterinary and Pharmaceutical Sciences in Brno and the Czech Pharmaceutical Museum in Kuks became new research centres in the history of pharmacy.
