معرفی
Dr. Vesna B. Medakovic is an Assistant Professor at the Department of General and Inorganic Chemistry, Faculty of Chemistry, University of Belgrade. She has dedicated her career to theoretical and computational studies in inorganic chemistry, focusing on non-covalent interactions and molecular recognition.
- Doctorate in Chemical Sciences (2005-2012)
- Master's degree in Chemical Sciences (1998-2003)
- Bachelor's degree in Chemical Sciences (1991-1996)
Her research explores:
- Non-covalent interactions in metal-porphyrin complexes
- CH/pi and XH/pi interactions in biological systems
- Theoretical modeling of transition metal coordination
- Molecular recognition mechanisms in proteins
- Quantum chemistry applications in inorganic systems
- Crystallographic analysis of metal complexes
Publication trends indicate a focus on computational chemistry, with particular emphasis on hydrogen bonding, aromatic interactions, and metal-ligand dynamics. Her work bridges inorganic chemistry with biochemistry through structural analysis of metal-containing biomolecules.
She has contributed to fundamental research projects funded by the Serbian Ministry of Science and Technology, including studies on non-covalent interactions in molecular recognition (2011, Project 172065). Her career progression at the Faculty of Chemistry includes roles as Teaching Assistant, Researcher-intern, Assistant, and Research Associate before becoming Assistant Professor in 2014.
