Maja Gruden-Pavlovic

Dr. Maja Gruden-Pavlović is a Full Professor at the University of Belgrade's Faculty of Chemistry, Department of General and Inorganic Chemistry. She has been affiliated with the university since 1997, progressing from Assistant Trainee to Full Professor (2019). Her administrative roles include Vice-Dean for Science (2013–2015) and Director of the Innovation Center (2020–present).

Her research spans coordination chemistry, bioinorganic chemistry, and theoretical modeling of transition-metal systems, with emphasis on Jahn-Teller effects, molecular magnets, and catalytic mechanisms. She employs advanced computational methods (DFT, TD-DFT) to study spin states and magnetic properties.

She leads/participates in key projects including Horizon Europe's PFAStwin (2022–2025) and Serbia's IDEJE-funded TMMagCat (2022–2025). Her recent publications (2012–2016) focus on computational analysis of metal complexes, magnetic anisotropy, and reaction mechanisms, with recurring themes in Jahn-Teller distortions and catalytic design.

Teaching responsibilities cover core chemistry courses like General Chemistry, Coordination Chemistry, and computational modeling. She has no listed scientific awards or advised students in the provided data.
