Our history
The Hungarian Academy of Sciences (MTA) reorganised its network of research institutes in 2011. Thus, on 1 January 2012, it established the MTA Centre for Ecological Research. During the transformation, the MTA Institute of Ecology and Botany and the MTA Danube Research Institute were integrated into the MTA Balaton Limnological Research Institute. Currently, our institution is called ELKH Centre for Ecological Research, and its three institutes are the Institute of Ecology and Botany, the Institute of Aquatic Ecology and the Institute of Evolution.
