When it was launched in 2013, the National Brain Research Programme (NAP) was one of the biggest undertakings of our Academy. On 6 and 7 May this year, participants of the third edition of the NAP presented their results at the Puchner Castle Hotel in Bikal. 

Even if you remain a researcher, your career can take many different paths. One, but by no means the only, measure of success is the attainment of academic degrees, the highest of which is the non-tenure-track academic degree. 

The history of Budapest's seventh district officially begins in 1873, and the past 150 years have been as full of events as the district itself has been full of residents.

The facts don't change what we think about them, but our lives are very much influenced by what is generally accepted in the treatment of, for example, a disease. Millions of lives and quality of life are affected if experimental results and observations show that we need to think differently, that we need a paradigm shift. This is what is happening now with thyroid hormone, with the active involvement of Balázs Gereben and his team.

Their discovery was published in the journal PNAS.
