I am an Associate Professor of Pharmaceutical Chemistry at the Faculty of Medical Sciences, University of Kragujevac. My research interest encompasses the structural and biological characterization of newly synthesized derivatives of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, the field of computer chemistry that involves molecular modeling studies, as well as the field of coordination chemistry, involving the synthesis and characterization of various complexes of transition metals with pharmacologically active ligands, and investigation of their biological activity. I am currently engaged in a project of the Ministry of Education, Science and Technological Development of the Republic of Serbia entitled "Synthesis, modeling, physicochemical and biological properties of organic compounds and corresponding metal complexes. In addition, I am the principal investigator on the two Junior Projects entitled "Development of new thiourea derivatives of naproxen - synthesis, physicochemical characterization, assessment of gastrointestinal absorption and chemometric analysis" and “Development of new amide derivatives of ketoprofen and oxaprozin - synthesis, physicochemical characteristics, specificity of binding to plasma proteins and testing of biological activity” on Faculty of Medical Sciences, University of Kragujevac. I have scientific expertise and a background in pharmaceutical, computational chemistry, and drug testing and control.
