Dr. Emil Božin, one of the world’s leading researchers in solid-state physics and ERA Chair of the HIP-2D-QM project funded by Horizon Europe program, speaks in the latest episode of A Look into Physics about his scientific journey and the vision behind the establishment of the Regional Training Center for the Advanced Structural Analysis at the Institute of Physics in Belgrade.
After years of work at the prestigious Brookhaven National Laboratory (USA), Dr. Božin returned to Serbia with the goal of strengthening advanced research infrastructure and creating new opportunities for young scientists in the region. In the interview, he explains why similar training centers exist at leading scientific institutions worldwide and highlights their crucial role in modern materials research.
Dr. Božin also discusses the importance of advanced structural analysis for understanding complex quantum and solid-state materials, as well as the reasons why Serbia, and the Institute of Physics in Belgrade in particular, represents a strong and competitive environment for hosting such a regional center.
Through this initiative, the Institute of Physics in Belgrade further reinforces its position as a regional hub for advanced materials research and the development of the next generation of scientists.
