Luciaková, Katarína ; Petelen, Ivan (referee) ; Žalmanová, Petra (referee) ; Ing.Petr Karásek (referee) ; Šindlar, Jiljí (advisor)
This thesis explores the relationship between architecture and the blind people. For better clarity and understanding of the topic, The work has been divided into five distinctive parts. In the first, introduction part, I approach space sensation of a blind person from the physiological and psychological angle. This analysis is very important for the understanding of imagination, which the blind person has. Another important fact to understand is the way in which the blind person gets the information about the space and what is his ability to process it. Further, I explain the basic principles of the blind person’s movement through space and describe instructions of how to help blind people in the concrete spatial situations. In the next part, I give a short information about the historical progress of the relation between the society and the blind people. An important fact is that, as late as 200 years ago, the blind people were considered as “sub men” and did not have the full freedom privilege. This relation has been modified over time and nowadays, the blind people have the freedom of movement and all the rights to enjoy their lives. To meet the needs of the blind people, many associations have been created that act on their behalf. The associations have different modes of functioning, but their common goal is to help blind people with their social rehabilitation, looking for employment and removing architectural barriers. The core of my work is divided into two parts. In the first one, I focus on the problematic of the blind people and architecture from the functional aspect. The functional aspect is vital for the blind people. It corresponds to their safety in the environment. In this chapter, I treat in detail basic elements for designing buildings, for specifying barriers and principles of design for blind people. Furthermore, I describe the help tools the blind people need in order to move in the space. I evaluate the future of these tools and indicate the rapid technological progression which makes the life of blind people more comfortable. In the next part, I focus on the problematic of the blind people and architecture from the aesthetic aspect. This question has not been much explored yet, but is, nonetheless, very important. In this part of my work, I use more my personal experience and the knowledge coming from the exploration of space. Aesthetical values are subjective for all the people, with or without a handicap. Therefore, in this final chapter, I try to note the facts that can be used in the process of the aesthetical perception and to reflect on them. In the domain of aesthetical research, there also exist tools and institutions that help blind people in their comprehension of architecture. The division of my work emerged from the compilation of diverse facts in the process of writing. This thesis has an informative and practical character. It is intended for people who want to understand and to be informed about how to design architecture for the blind people. It will be directed towards people who build this kind of architecture and need an overview of how to make it. It is also intended for people interested in learning more about architecture.

Historical Outline of the Evolution of the Methods and Forms of Histological Examination
Bašíková, Jana ; Dohnal, František (advisor) ; Doseděl, Martin (referee)
9. Abstract The purpose of this bachelor thesis is to capture the circumstances of the creation, establishment and gradual development of histological examinations in the context of medical history and the historical development of biological sciences. The content of the thesis is focused on clarification of the conditions of creation - discovery of examinations of histological character as the principal qualitative turn and its progress in the medicinal diagnosis. Further aim of the thesis underlines the clarification of single contributions of the important personalities that led to creation and promotion of the field of histology with impact on Czech (Czechoslovak) medical history. This methodology is linked also to the last objective of this thesis that focuses on capturing of the current state and the spectre of possibilities of histological examinations, the methods in use, and last but not least the position and the purpose of the histological task in the field of modern medicine and its respective areas.

Historical progress of laboratory research methods, historical progress of biochemical laboratory research methods and contemporary practice in the branch
Pavlíčková, Veronika ; Dohnal, František (advisor) ; Babica, Jan (referee)
Veronika Pavlíčková Historical progress of laboratory research methods, historical progress and the present of biochemical laboratory research methods Bachelor thesis Charles University in Prague, Faculty of Pharmacy in Hradec Králové Medical Laboratory Technician Background: Object of the work is to catch the circumstances of the origin, establishing and gradual progress of laboratory research methods especially the biochemical ones, in context of medical history and historical progress of nature science cognition. In content, the work concentrates on clarifying of the circumstances of the origin of laboratory research methods as an essential qualitative turn and progress in medical diagnostics. Object of the work is also to clarify the participation of important personalities on the origin and enforcement laboratory research methods, all of this applying on the Czech (Czechoslovak) medical past. In continuity on this methodical process another object of the work is to catch the former status of the biochemical branch more specific, applied methods and at least but not last to specify its part and target in the medicine today. Main findings: An effort to explore a biological human material as an important part of diagnostics accompanies the progress of medicine from the oldest times. The...
