The Center for Reproductive Medicine

In 1919, after establishment of the University of Brno, the Maternity Hospital became a teaching center. The same year saw the establishment of the Clinic of Obstetrics and Gynecology which is currently the largest institute in the Czech Republic providing comprehensive care in all specializations of this field. A neonatal department was established there in 1949 and headed by MUDr. Milada Schnellerová. The Neonatology department currently forms part of the Perinatal Center of Brno.
