What are the joint relationships between social network structure, urban geography, and inequality? Here, the authors analyze an online social network and find that inequalities rise in towns where social networks are fragmented, and that this fragmentation is significantly higher in towns in which residential neighborhoods are divided by physical barriers such as rivers and railroads.

With lower barriers to entry and no traditional gatekeepers, online platforms offer a promise of broader participation by and equity for female scientists, with the potential to serve as an equalizer for researchers who encounter bias throughout the publishing process and at every stage of their careers.

This time we introduce Sandor Kristály, who came to us from Transylvania, and works on the theory of optimal mass transportation. Within a few years’ time, we may already see the specific results of the process started by the Corvinus to strengthen international cooperation in research, says Sándor Kristály.

On this occasion we present Andreas Orland, who worked as a researcher at the University of Potsdam and as head of #PLEx (Potsdam Laboratory for Economic Experiments).“It is simply a great opportunity to focus on research for ten months”, says Andreas Orland from the international research centre of the Corvinus Institute for Advanced Studies (CIAS). Andreas Orland learnt about the opportunity from a teacher at Corvinus.

This time we introduce András Fülöp, who lives in Paris and came back – on a temporary basis – from the ESSEC business school in France to Budapest.Andras Fülöp heard about the transformation and the reforms going on at the Corvinus, and they made him curious, so he immediately wanted to take a closer look at the direction his former alma mater was taking, he told us. The reason, among other things, is that he was looking for researchers with whom he could work together.

‘Opening and establishing international relations is definitely useful’, says Mladen Domazet. The director of the Institute for Political Ecology in Zagreb was happy to apply for admission to the Corvinus Institute for Advanced Studies (#CIAS) international research centre. He has known Budapest for long, as he was involved in a number of scientific projects here, too. He was a member of the organising board of the 5th International No-Growth Conference, and that was when his cooperation with Dr. Alexandra Köves, associate professor of the Corvinus started.

“I would be lying if I said that I planned a research career, because it was not the case. I was an active climber during my student years, so I was looking for a job where one could easily manage their free time. The researcher’s career gave me that, and I was able to travel to China, Nepal and India to climb mountains and do my work at the same time, because you can think anywhere,” he points out right at the start of the interview, so that no definite planning should be assumed for his progress to the 2021 Corvinus Research Excellence Award in the senior lecturer-researcher category.

“In many ways, MIT was a turning point. A paragraph like this on your CV opens doors. I was awarded a tender after MIT that formed the cornerstone of the ANET research group,” says Balázs Lengyel midway through the interview about one of the milestones in his research career, but it is worth mentioning the amount of work, knowledge and inspiration it took for him to get here.Balázs’ first role model in his academic career was his own father, who specialises in regional economics at the University of Szeged. Imre Lengyel researches the competitiveness of regions in both Hungary and neighbouring countries, and Balázs has observed his father working intently since his childhood: “He always satisfied his own curiosity, and I liked that very much”.

A significant part of László Csató's research career is focused on sport. Having written a large number of papers on sport-related topics, in 2021 he won the Corvinus Research Excellence Grand Prize. He has become such a well-known researcher that Forbes asked him before the Champions League football final about how to predict the odds with a mathematical model.Yet he says he doesn't follow sporting events, he's not interested in individual excellence, but rather in the data and the research opportunities that can be derived: “I do not think I am a fan. For example, I don't watch matches at all, but I do follow the scores to some extent.

What does one do at the start of one’s career with a fresh medical degree? The majority undoubtedly start as residents, later becoming specialists, and follow the path paved by the profession. Valentin Brodszky also embarked on this path, but after just one year as a resident, he realised that he felt out of place. In search of a path, he started studying economics at Corvinus University, not expecting at the time to eventually pursue a career in healthcare.
