# Commemoration on the 153rd anniversary of the birth of Dr. László Buday

On October 27, members of Groups 1 and 3 of the Pécs Community House commemorated the 153rd anniversary of the birth of Dr. László Buday in a ceremonial setting. The event not only paid tribute to the life work of an exceptional scientist, but also provided an opportunity for participants to get to know more closely the work of one of the defining figures of Hungarian statistical science.

The venue for the commemoration held special significance, as the building of today’s Pécs Community House was once the birthplace of Dr. László Buday. Today, the Community House is the setting for the development, encounters, and shared experiences of the beneficiaries in Pécs and their family members, thus serving as a worthy venue for the memorial day.

The program opened with a presentation by Enikő Szőke, a member of Pécs Group 3, which gave a comprehensive overview of Dr. László Buday’s life journey and professional achievements. The beneficiaries gained insight into the scientific work whose impact can still be felt today. It was highlighted that several of the methods and statistical approaches developed by the researcher are still applied in modern statistical practice, proving his enduring professional legacy.

As a worthy conclusion to the commemoration, participants paid tribute to the memory of Dr. László Buday with a ceremonial wreath-laying, expressing their appreciation for the value-creating work that left a lasting mark on Hungarian scientific life.

The life work of Dr. László Buday continues to set an example of commitment, scientific rigor, and the power of knowledge put at the service of the community. On November 6, at the 4th Buday Conference to be held in Budapest, the groups will also present their own research.
