University of Belgrade, Faculty of Veterinary Medicine, Department for Ruminants and Swine Disease;I have over 30 years of experience in scientific and technological projects at both national and international levels, and have led and supervised multiple projects internationally. Results from these projects have been published in numerous national and international journals. I am a retired professor (October 2024) at the University of Belgrade, Faculty of Veterinary Medicine, Belgrade, Serbia, and am still active in research. I publish my research in journals on the Sci list and in a national journal. I speak at national and international conferences. The field of my study is ruminant and swine disease, including biosecurity, welfare, and veterinary genetics.
