Best of Budapest & Hungary

‘Research is cool!’ is the motto of this annual series of events. This year’s program on September 27-28 will include a great number of programs countrywide, all admission free.

The main objective of the organizers is to overcome the prevailing stereotypes about researchers and contribute to the enhancement of their public recognition through aspects of innovation, gender, mobility, international research and lifelong learning. Therefore, the programs intend to show the attractiveness of the research career, and are designed to “edutain” the public, especially the new generation – so do not forget to bring your kids! Scientific presentations will be mixed with entertaining elements and interactive workshops at all venues, including the world-famous Ericson labs, the CERN Data Centre - WIGNER Research Centre for Physics, the Palace of Miracles and the Bay Zoltán Nonprofit Ltd. for Applied Research, a leading Hungarian applied research institute. Visit the latter for LEGO-robot building and programming, and hands-on biotechnological experiments. For a fully detailed program and a list of all venues, click here.
