As a Fogarty Fellow he spent two years in the Joslin Diabetes Center (Harvard University, Boston USA) in 1989-91. His major fields of study are molecular chaperones and networks. As the chairman of the all-European COST network on "Diabetes, Aging and Obesity" he promotes international cooperation in these fields since 1994. In 1995 dr. Csermely launched a highly successful initiative, which provides research opportunities for more than 7000 gifted high school students. He has published five books and more than 160 research papers with a total citation over 1500. Dr. Csermely is the secretary of the Hungarian Biochemical Society, is the founding secretary and president-elect of Cell Stress Society International, is an Ashoka Fellow, was a Fogarty and Howard Hughes Scholar and received several other national and international honors and awards including the 2003 Science Communication Award o

f the European Molecular Biology Organization, the 2004 Hungarian Science Communication Award and the 2004 Descartes Award of the European Union for Science Communication.
