New virtual exchange established via COIL Connect in March 2023

The Faculty of Sciences, University of Novi Sad has established the first virtual exchange collaboration via COIL Connect network with The Catholic University of Manizales, Colombia.

The virtual exchange collaboration will be realized through General English classes and English for Geosciences classes by our professor Stanka Radojičić from the Department of Geography, Tourism and Hotel Management and Adriana Maria Ramirez Garcia, a professor at the Catholic University of Manizales, Colombia. The overall topic of the collaboration will be UN Sustainable Development Goal No. 15 ‘Life on Land’ which will connect 14 Health (Bacteriology) students from the Colombian university and 14 + 9 students of Geography and Geoinformatics from the Faculty of Sciences, University of Novi Sad. Students will examine and compare the realization of this UN goal in their countries and present at the final online mini-conference. The collaboration will be done through joint tasks synchronously and asynchronously using a variety of digital tools.

European Commission – Innovation Radar Prize 2022

Our institution, University of Novi Sad Faculty of Sciences (UNSPMF) participates as a project partner within the EU H2020 ASCAPE project. ASCAPE has not only been listed in the EU Innovation Radar catalogue, but is was also selected for the short-list of the top 10 innovations during this year’s EU Innovation Radar Prize competition, under the Kickstarter category.

The ASCAPE Innovation, a Healthcare Open AI Platform, allows data collected and held at different hospitals and primary care centres as well as personal wearable devices, room sensors, and environmental or other relevant data to be used for training high-precision ML models which can provide personalised predictions about an individual’s healthcare progression, as well as evidence-based health intervention recommendations. It has been validated in the context of automated cancer patient monitoring with ML models trained from some of Europe’s leading hospitals and health services innovators.
