Bio

Milena began her science education at the University of Belgrade, where she got a B.S. in chemistry. She continued her education at the University of Colorado Boulder, earning a Ph.D. in chemical physics. Before arriving at NC State, she conducted postdoctoral research at Princeton University.

Area(s) of Expertise

Quantum materials are at the forefront of the next technological revolution. However, there are a limited number of known quantum materials, and the quantum behavior usually arises only at low temperatures and high pressures. My research uses a chemistry point of view to design new quantum materials and to find access to quantum behavior under milder conditions, such as room temperature and pressure.
