He has identified novel bioactive compounds for a number of therapeutic targets, mostly in oncological diseases and COVID-19 infection. His achievements have been recognized with the Junior Prima Prize in 2019, the B\u00e1r\u00e1ny R\u00f3bert Prize in 2022 and the Young Scientist Award of the Hungarian Academy of Sciences in 2024. He has co-authored more than 60 scientific publications and three book chapters in major reference works, which have altogether been cited more than 3000 times. In addition to his research, he participates in the education of young researchers, being a thesis supervisor at PhD, MSc and BSc levels, and is involved in the organization and management of international conferences and awareness-raising events. He has been a member of the Hungarian Young Academy since 2025, and was a recipient of the Bolyai J\u00e1nos Research Scholarship of the Hungarian Academy of Sciences between 2020\u20132023 and 2024\u20132026.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"D\u00e1vid Bajusz graduated from the University of Debrecen as a chemist and obtained his PhD in chemistry from the Budapest University of Technology and Economics.
