Scientists from the Wuhan University of Technology visited the Institute for Biological Research "Siniša Stanković".
On 11 July 2026, researchers from the Institute for Biological Research “Siniša Stanković” participated in Science Day, organized by the Centre for the Promotion of Science and Research (CNIRS) of the Faculty of Biology, University of Belgrade, in the Jevremovac Botanical Garden.
PhD students from the Institute for Biological Research “Siniša Stanković”, Sofija Ignjatović and Vasilije Živaljević, participated in the European Society of Endocrinology (ESE) Summer School 2026, held in Innsbruck, Austria.
Within the framework of the STRIMHealth project, the Institute for Biological Research “Siniša Stanković” hosted Raquel Duarte, a PhD student from the Research Institute for Medicines (iMed.ULisboa), Faculty of Pharmacy, Universidade de Lisboa, as part of a Short-Term Scientific Exchange (STSE). The visit was carried out from 29 May to 2 July 2026 under the supervision of Dr. Nataša Veličković, in close collaboration with the host research team.
Dunja Milunović is a Research Trainee at the Department for Genetic Research at the Institute for Biological Research “Siniša Stanković” – National Institute of the Republic of Serbia, University of Belgrade. Her field of research includes the implementation of bioinformatics methods into the study of B chromosomes of the species Apodemus flavicollis, which includes transcriptomic analysis of differentially expressed genes in mice with and without B chromosomes.
Epigenetics studies changes in gene expression that are not accompanied by changes in the sequence of DNA molecules, as well as their transmission and transgenerational maintenance. Researchers at the Institute study the mechanisms of stable maintenance of expression of certain genes (mechanisms of changes in the DNA methylation pattern), as well as the possibility of changing epigenetic marks for therapeutic purposes using CRISPR/Cas9 fused constructs. The target diseases researchers are focused on are diabetes and triple negative breast cancer.
Population genetics studies genetic composition - distribution and change in frequency of alleles over time, within and between populations. It uses mathematical models of allele frequency dynamics, makes predictions about the likely patterns of genetic variation in actual populations, and tests the predictions against empirical data.
