Tanja Pajić

Tanja Pajić is a Research Associate at the Department of General Physiology and Biophysics, Faculty of Biology, University of Belgrade. Her work focuses on filamentous fungi physiology, biophotonics, and nonlinear optical microscopy.

• Key Techniques: Femtosecond laser nanosurgery, Patch-clamp, Third Harmonic Generation (THG) microscopy
• Research Themes: Ion channels in fungi, Lipid droplet dynamics, Mitochondrial morphology, Cellular stress responses
• Applications: Fungal pathogen studies, Drug development, Live-cell imaging

Her recent publications highlight advancements in label-free metabolic imaging and ATP-dependent ion channel regulation in Phycomyces blakesleeanus. She investigates how environmental factors like temperature and chemical inhibitors affect fungal physiology at subcellular scales.
