Hello!

I'm an electrical engineer from Hungary, who also does a lot of physics and biology in job. At the beginning of my career I worked with X-ray systems control and image processing, then with isotope diagnostic devices, then with non-invasive electrobiological measurements and spirometry. I am currently working in the field of detecting of hazardous substances and agents.

I am interested in physics and science as a hobby and as a job too.

We made a device for radioactive material detection. And now we are working on to detect biological threats in air - we are still in research phase. The goal is to develop a handheld, or mobile system. I can share more info on private channel if you would like.
