Belgrade,
11 June 2009
Deputy Prime Minister for EU integration and Minister of Science and Technological Development Bozidar Djelic met today with FameLab Serbia 2009 winner Mirko Djordjevic and discussed the conditions needed for talented young scientists to continue their careers in Serbia.
Djelic said that Djordjevic showed that science can be fun, recalling that at the competition held in Great Britain on June 6 he presented Darwin’s theory of evolution in an original way.
He reiterated that the government will strive to encourage young scientists to remain in the country.
He announced that on June 15 a meeting will be held with the President of the European Investment Bank to arrange a €150 million loan for science infrastructure.
He said an integral part of the project would be the foundation of the Centre for the Promotion of Science and Technology in Serbia, which would involve young and successful scientists, such as Djordjevic, for which €10 million will be allocated.
Djordjevic told the press that the recognition he received means a lot to him, adding that he would like to remain in Serbia and work there, although he could study further at Oxford or Cambridge Universities.
Having won the Serbian finals, Djordjevic qualified for the International FameLab Finals held in Cheltenham, UK on June 6, 2009 and won the title of the Best Science Communicator in 2009.
The festival in Cheltenham is taking place for the ninth time and is aimed at supporting young scientists aged 18 to 35.
