Training and research in environmental chemistry and toxicology

The collaboration among some partners in the region has started already fifteen years ago through Association of Chemistry and the Environment (ACE) between partners from University of Ljubljana, Faculty of Health Sciences (prof. Polonca Trebše), University of Belgrade, Faculty of Chemistry (prof. Branimir Jovančičević) and Brno University of Technology, Faculty of Chemistry (prof. Josef Caslavsky). They collaborated through the research as well as in the development of new study programmes and study materials in the field of environmental chemistry and toxicology (TEMPUS project). Our common points of interest represent pollutants, coming from different sources like industries, agriculture, human activities, affect different environmental spheres such as air, water, soil, and pose serious threat to the ecosystems and living organisms. From that reason we wanted to connect not only teachers in the region but mostly students to work on real environmental problems and get insight to them. The network represents a basis for the establishment of collaboration between faculties with the main objective: to provide expertise and infrastructure for interdisciplinary education and research of future experts in the fields of environmental chemistry and toxicology. Within the last five years: - We performed intensive exchange of students and professors within the network. - Several students performed the research work to obtain more skills and experiences (e.g. Adna Čolakovič, Nejra Kovač, Igor Akrap, Lara Čižmek) - Several students performed the research work within master of doctoral thesis (e.g. Šenan Hadžibegić, Hena Divanović, Štefan Kulaš, Marcin Podražka, Anamarija Milisav, Jerca Bajuk, Katarina Bertović).
