What else could we start with but to congratulate our young and successful colleague Susanne Prokop on her latest success, the Junior Prima Prize in Science, the most prestigious Hungarian award for researchers under 33 years of age!
The celebration of Hungarian science has a special place among November's festivities, which is as much for the whole country as other commemorations of our history.
A paper by Viktor Varga's group, co-firstauthored by Albert Barth and Márta Jelitai, published in Nature Communications, reports an unexpected discovery in one of the most studied regions of the brain, the hippocampus.
Some visits are an honor for the hosts. This was the case with Professor Thomas C. Südhof, who visited our institute on 19 September 2023 and gave a lecture for us.

Despite the fact that the news portals are full of articles about Katalin Karikó and Ferenc Krausz's Nobel Prize, it is worth reading our ERC grant-winning Principal Investigator István Katona's thoughts on Katalin Karikó and the significance of her Nobel Prize.
We have been involved in the programme since 2020, but this was our first "real" event, with larger attendance at lectures and lab visits. All visitors had to register on the official website of the Researchers' Night.
