Dr. Srđan Kesić

Srđan Kesić graduated from the Faculty of Biology, University of Belgrade, in 2005 as the first and best student of his generation. At the same faculty, after completing doctoral studies in neurobiology, he defended PhD thesis in 2014, entitled "Application of Higuchi's fractal dimension and independent component method in the analysis of garden snail Br neuron bursting activity modulated by static magnetic field and ouabain". He also graduated from the Faculty of Philosophy, University of Belgrade, majoring in Philosophy in 2010. Dr. Srđan Kesić has been working at the Institute for Biological Research "Siniša Stanković" - Institute of National Importance for the Republic of Serbia, University of Belgrade, since 2005, where he has been involved in several research projects.

Dr. Kesić's research is focused on the study of the influence of various environmental factors and pharmacologically active substances on the central nervous system functioning, with a particular focus on the effects of prenatal and postnatal exposure to a low-frequency magnetic field on cognition and emotional behavior in peripuberty and the later adult phase of life. Dr. Kesić also studies the electrical activity of neurons with the application of sophisticated methods of biosignal analysis, such as fractal analysis. He is also involved in the philosophy of biology, philosophy of science, and theoretical-philosophical aspects of understanding complex biological systems.

He received a FENS/IBRO scholarship to participate in the "IBRO Summer Training School in Neuroscience: Neuroimaging and complementary Techniques" in Belgrade 2008 and the 7th FENS Forum in Amsterdam. A short visit to Moscow's Institute for Problems of Information Transmission at the Russian Academy of Sciences and Arts. Lecture at the Faculty of Computer Mathematics and Cybernetics at Lomonosov University in Moscow, Russian Federation.

Dr. Kesić is a member of the BioEM Society, the Federation of European Neuroscience Societies (FENS), the Neuroscience Society of Serbia, the Serbian Biological Society, and the Biophysical Society of Serbia. He is a reviewer in several journals on the SCI list and proposals for the New Millennium Nucleus projects of the Republic of Chile. He is a guest editor in Frontiers in Physiology. Dr. Kesić is the coeditor of one book.
