Dr. Vojnović Milutinović is Principal Research Fellow employed at IBISS, Department of Biochemistry. Throughout her professional career, she has been involved in several national and international projects, including the EC FP6 project “Psychobiology of Posttraumatic Stress Disorder” (# INCO-CT-2004-509213, 2004-2008), and the ongoing Horizon Europe project “Strengthening Translational Research for Improved Metabolic Health” (STRIMHealth) (# 101159400, 2024-2027).
Danijela’s expertise is in the field of molecular endocrinology, with a focus on steroid signalling in various pathophysiological conditions related to metabolic disorders, obesity, insulin resistance, and exceptionally Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS). She is particularly interested in the pathophysiology of PCOS, therefore most of her research is devoted to elucidating the molecular mechanisms of these metabolic disturbances in the adipose tissue, muscle, and liver of the PCOS animal model.
During her career Danijela has published over 55 original research papers in international peer-reviewed journals. She is currently a member of the Scientific Committee of the European Society of Endocrinology and the Obesity Strategic Group in the same society. She is also Associate Editor for the Journal of Endocrinological Investigation, member of the Editorial Board of Hormones International Journal of Endocrinology and Metabolism.
