Representing our research group, Szabolcs Harangi gave an invited lecture in the “Geological Evenings” public lecture series at Babeș–Bolyai University, Cluj-Napoca, on 20 May 2025.

The title of the talk was:“Understanding volcanoes: the role of volcanology in the 21st century.”

The lecture addressed recent advances in volcanology, the scientific and societal relevance of volcano research, and the role of studies carried out on the volcanoes of the Carpathian–Pannonian Region.

During the visit, classroom lectures were also held for university students.
Réka Lukács introduced the students to the fundamentals of radioisotopic geochronology, highlighting how these methods help to reconstruct the timescales of volcanic processes.
