Our student Nikola Arsić was admitted to the prestigious Master LIVE program in the field of vaccinology
Nikola Arsić, a third-year student of the primary academic studies program Bachelor of Biology, was admitted to the Master LIVE program (Leading International Vaccinology Education) in the field of vaccinology, within the Erasmus Mundus project, with a full (EACEA) scholarship. This is a two-year program that includes studies at 5 universities in three (or more) European countries: Université Claude Bernard Lyon and Université Jean Monnet Saint-Etienne in France, University of Antwerp in Belgium, Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona and Universitat de Barcelona in Spain. This year, 25 students from all over the world were admitted to the program, 19 of whom received scholarships, while there were over 1,300 who had applied in the first round.
We congratulate Nikola on such an amazing success.

Researchers from the Faculty of Sciences are again among the most cited scientists in the world in 2020
The list of 2% most cited scientists according to the Stanford List has been republished for lifelong citation rates and citations in 2020.
According to the citations in 2020, our Faculty has been represented on the list by Prof. Dr Neda Mimica Dukić (who is also ranked on the list for lifelong citations), Prof. Dr Dušan Jakovetić, Prof. Dr Slobodan Marković, Academician Stevan Pilipović and Prof. Dr Ante Vujić.
These scientist rankings represent a great success and important recognition for their scientific research work, as well as confirmation of the relevance of their research topics and recognition on the international scientific scene.
Three New Curricula Developed in the Fields of Reproductive Biology/ Assisted Reproductive Technologies and Regenerative Medicine
Erasmus+ Project “Curricula Development in the Fields of Reproductive Biology/ Assisted Reproductive Technologies and Regenerative Medicine in Serbia”, Ref. No. 586181‐EPP‐1‐2017‐1‐RS‐EPPKA2‐CBHE‐JP ART-REM led by the University of Novi Sad, with the Faculty of Sciences and the Faculty of Medicine as the participants, was successfully completed in June 2021 and received the highest grades on behalf of EACEA.
MAS in Reproductive Biology were enhanced and new study programmes were created at the University of Belgrade, the Faculty of Veterinary Medicine – Academic Specialization in Animal Reproductive Biotechnology and the University of Kragujevac, the Faculty of Medicine – MAS in Regenerative Medicine. LLL courses were also created for the veterinarians and reproductive biologists – embryologists.
All three universities procured modern equipment, and a signed agreement between the three universities enabled teaching staff exchange within the above-mentioned study programmes.
