Meet Ing. Hynek Roubík, Ph.D. a successful graduate of the Faculty of Tropical Agrisciences (FTA) at the Czech University of Life Sciences Prague (CZU), leader of Biogas Research Team and agriculture enthusiast with a passion for his work.
Hynek focuses mainly on organic waste management and is the author of several successful research thesis. As a young professional just 30 years old he has already published over 30 scientific articles within a range of topics related mainly to biogas, organic waste and waste management in the developing world, has participated in and coordinated over 20 projects and is now the supervisor or co-supervisor of 1 bachelor, 6 masters and 7 Ph.D. students. Currently, he is also intensively working on the “CZU mobiLAB” project, which facilitates the work of medical workers in the field and offers a complex solution for the detection of infectious diseases (including COVID-19) in inaccessible areas of developing countries (see here to learn all about it).
As a young talented agricultural professional, we invited Dr. Roubík to shares with us his story through an interview conducted by Kristýna Havlová - YPARD Europe intern, who aimed at capturing Hynek’s journey thus far through a series of carefully crafted questions.
