Dental Gold Alloys and Gold Nanoparticles for Biomedical Applications / SpringerBriefs in Materials (PDF)

Rebeka Rudolf has been employed permanently at the University of Maribor Slovenia, Faculty of Mechanical Engineering, since 1993. In 2006 she was additionally employed by the firm Zlatarna Celje d.o.o. Slovenia as the Research Manager (Leader of the Research Group). She has focused intensively on the development of new dental alloys, studying their biocompatibility and corrosion resistance, which are the applicable values for the field of the Stomatology. Under her leadership, four Au dental alloys were patented and launched on the EU market. In the last 5 years, she has been involved actively in the field of Nanotechnology - the synthesis of the different metal nanoparticles based on the Ultrasonic Spray Pyrolysis process. In 2017, she achieved the level of Research Counsellor and Associate Professor in the University of Maribor (Habilitation field: Materials). Her bibliography consists of 1,044 units, including 172 original scientific articles.



Vojkan Lazic is a Full Professor and Vice Dean at the School of Dental Medicine at the University of Belgrade. He has been employed at the University permanently since 1994. Since then he has been involved in teaching and research, especially in Dental materials in the field of New dental alloys for ceramic fused to metal restorations. He was a participant and the main researcher in six scientific projects, mainly in Dental materials. In 2008 he became a Fellow at the Advanced Prosthodontic Division at UCLA, CA - USA. He has published 52 papers, of which 45 were scientific papers, then 110 reports at international and domestic conferences and six books. So far, he has been a mentor in 6 completed Doctoral Dissertations.



Peter Majeric completed his Doctoral studies in 2016 at the Institute of Materials Technology at the Faculty of Mechanical Engineering, University of Maribor. In collaboration with the Institute for Process Metallurgy and Metal Recycling, RWTH Aachen University, his research focus
