Dr. Vymětalová was born on July 18, 1966, in Prague. After graduating from a science-focused high school, she went on to study molecular biology and genetics at the Faculty of Science, Charles University, where she successfully defended her thesis on "The issue of non-randomness in chromosome arrangement in the mitotic nucleus" in 1992. Between 1995 and 2004, she worked as an assistant at the University of Chemistry and Technology in Prague. Subsequently, until her unexpected death, she was actively involved in the Department of Natural Sciences as a university lecturer specializing in biology-oriented subjects and microscopic imaging. In 2017, she successfully defended her dissertation entitled "The dependence of the biocompatibility of thin layers of TiO2 and doped DLC on their physicochemical parameters." Her professional interests focused on cell biology and genetics, and she is also the co-author of works on materials and waste management in healthcare facilities. Her textbook Biology for Biomedical Engineering is an integral part of the study materials for subjects taught at the Faculty of Biomedical Engineering.
In the past, Dr. Vymětalová also held the position of councilor for the Prague 6 district, where she was responsible for grant policy, drawing funds from the European Union, and project preparation from 2010 to 2014. She was a member of the cultural committee, the education and training committee, the anti-drug committee, and the social and health committee.
