Jana Albrechtová is a professor at Charles University (CUNI), Faculty of Science, Prague, Czech Republic, in the Department of Experimental Plant Biology. She has (co-)authored over 80 scientific articles and 1 book monography. Her research focus is on plant ecophysiological studies employing plant anatomy, physiology, leaf spectroscopy, and quantitative methods for image processing with emphasis given to multidisciplinary approaches. Long-term, she has been studying monitoring of the physiological status of vegetation employing quantitative methods in plant anatomy – stereological and image analyses, ecophysiology, using remote sensing methods, and the ecology of mycorrhiza. She has been a long-term collaborator on several projects focusing on monitoring vegetation health with colleagues from the NASA Goddard Space Flight Center, the University of New Hampshire (UNH), the University of Virginia, etc. She collaborates with GOFC-GOLD and START developed by NASA, being a European leader of SCERIN (South, Central, and Eastern Regional Network).
She received her first master's degree in biology and mathematics (1988) at CUNI and the second in ecology (1992) at the University of Wales, Bangor, UK. She obtained her Ph.D. at CU (1997), where she acted as Associate Professor (2004) and Full Professor (2011) of Plant Anatomy and Physiology. She spent one year (2003/2004) as a Fulbright Scholar - Faculty Fellow and Visiting Professor at UNH.
