Branimir Bajac

Position:Research associate

Academic Rank: Research associate in the field of technical/technological sciences - material science

Dr Branimir Bajac (M), researcher at BioSense institute, received the Ph.D. degrees in 2017 at the University of Novi Sad, Faculty of Technology Novi Sad, Serbia, in field of materials engineering. Author and co-author of more than 30 papers in international journals and conferences and 1 book chapter. His PhD involves research in ceramic multiferroic thin films, but his current scientific interests are in fields of metal-oxide gas sensors, biopolymers and optical gas sensors in smart food packaging. Experienced in various material procesing techniques and film deposition, characterization of their structural and functional properties. In the last 5 years a member of two H2020 projects (Shealthy, PROTEIN), two COST projects, one EUREKA, and two national Serbian project.
