László L. Kiss  Ph.D.  '''An Australian member of VSOP. '''

I did my PhD at the University of Szeged, Hungary, where I studied classical Cepheid stars and semiregular red variables. After my PhD I got involved in various projects on eclipsing binaries, classical novae, supernovae, star clusters, comets and minor planets ( Hi Mom!). I moved to the University of Sydney in late 2002, first working as a post-doc for Prof. Tim Bedding and then as a University of Sydney Postdoctoral Research Fellow.

My expertise for VSOP: anything weird in the wild kingdom of variable stars, preferably with pulsations, mass ejections, violent events in binary, triple or quadruple systems.
