YCN Committee - Aleksandra Milojkovic

Aleksandra is a PhD researcher and teaching assistant at the Chair of Neuroengineering Materials at the Technical University of Munich. Her research project focuses on core-shell cobalt ferrite-barium titanate magnetoelectric nanoparticles for brain stimulation, under the supervision of Prof. Dr. Kristen Kozielski.

In addition to her research, Aleksandra conducts exercises for the course Neuroengineering Materials and Interfaces and supervises students in the Scientific Seminar on Neuroengineering Materials, which is held each semester.

Aleksandra completed her bachelor’s degree in Materials Engineering at the Faculty of Technology in Novi Sad. She then pursued a master’s degree in Nanomaterials and Nanotechnology at Politecnico di Milano, supported by a merit-based scholarship. She completed her master’s thesis on core-shell magnetoelectric nanoparticles via sol gel synthesis at the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (KIT), under the supervision of Prof. Dr. Kozielski.

Currently, she is working on completing her PhD thesis and serves as a Committee Member of YCN, where she supervises Working Group 4, which focuses on international collaboration. Aleksandra’s vision is to increase YCN’s global visibility and make it more accessible to researchers in ceramics outside of Europe.
