National Animal Genetic Bank (NAGB)
NAGB is focused on collecting available genomic samples from wild fauna of the Czech Republic and also data on other existing genomic samples, e.g. from finished research projects or samples stored in museums, which can come from all over the world. NAGB ensures their long-term quality preservation and provides data to a widely accessible database of these samples to make them available for (further) research and thereby aims to contribute also to effective species conservation.

Reconstruction Report
Reconstruction of technical outbuilding located next to the Mohelský Mill flume to National Animal Genetic Bank sample repository started in July 2015. At first, roof, roof timbers and ceilings were dismantled. Removal of the existing plaster and installation of new ceiling trusses followed. After roof completion, the contractor employees moved into the building to incorporate new internal water and electricity distribution lines. The floor of the building was insulated with polystyrene, roof by glass wool. Further works included facade repair, necessary building of water and electricity connection and finish of surfaces.
