Dear visitors of the web guide www.myokarditida.cz,
My name is Jan Habásko and I am the founder and administrator of this web guide. I am a student of the 1st Medical School of Charles University in Prague and former student of Jan Neruda Grammar School in Prague and I had myocarditis myself. The website has been made primarily for patients with the diagnosis of myocarditis, their families and close ones and newly even for experts for whom a special part of the web guide has been appropriated. For both patients and experts, this web guide has been created as a source of basic information about myocarditis and inflammatory cardiomyopathy. At the same time, Version for public may be used by experts also as a tool facilitating their communication with patients and saving their time.
The project joined a number of experts of different specializations and different affiliations and even many other people. Their list may be found below:
