Kiss László

Prima Primissima Award-Winning Astronomer

When you looked up at clear night sky at night, you probably dreamed of one day getting to know the secrets of stars. László Kiss turned that dream into reality. He is a Prima Primissima Award-winning physicist and astronomer, a member of the Hungarian Academy of Sciences, and at Brain Bar, he invites you on a cosmic journey - but not only will he talk about the stars, but also about the fascinating relationship between mentors and students. Once a curious student himself, he has now become one of the most renowned mentors in the field - a fact underscored by his recognition as “Science Communicator of the Year” in 2020. As a professor, he has participated in more than 40 student projects, and he inspires hundreds every day on-and-offline.
