Dr. Petr Šíma
Dr. Sima was an important co-researcher of Dr. Richter in completing the independent clinical research done on IMUREGEN. His skills and expertise include nutritional immunology, quercetin, lymphocytes research, works on the phylogeny of immunity, and anti-aging medicine. Born December 23, 1942, in Prague, he had his Czech education at the Institute of Microbiology at the Charles University. He is considered one of a few leading immunologists in Europe.

Dr. Josef Richter
Dr. Richter is a leading Czech scientist for many years specializing in Immunology and Oncology. Now retired, he is still an advisor and consultant for The Ministry of Health of the Czech Republic. He was the director of the prestigious Institute of Health in Usti nad Labem, Czech Republic. He and the institute represented the Czech Republic in The World Health Organisation (WHO). He also kept a private office until recently for the most prominent Czech citizens, politicians actors, etc, including former president of The Czech Republic Mr. Vaclav Havel.
In 2001 Dr.Richter was chosen by The Ministry of Health to conduct a very comprehensive study under the program name: Protective and immunomodulatory influence of supplementing RNA, comparing of clinical testing and experimental model. He was free to choose his own assistants/participants. He selected the most prominent and experienced Czech doctors/scientists.
