biography
In 1981, I received the degree of B. Sc. in Chemical Engineering, from the University of California at Los Angeles, (UCLA) (1981). In 1992, I obtained the degree of M. Sc. in Chemical Science from Budapest Technical University (BTU). In 1998, I finished the Ph. D. (Candidate) in Chemical Science, from the Hungarian Academy of Sciences in Budapest with a summa cum laude honor.
In 1999, I started working, as a researcher ,at the Hungarian Academy of Sciences, Chemical Research Center, Department of Surface Modification and Corrosion Science. Since 2005, I work as a senior research fellow at the Functional Interfaces Group, Institute of Materials and Environmental Chemistry, Research Centre for Natural Sciences, Hungarian Academy of Sciences.
