Dr. Aleksandar Joksimović, Scientific Advisor and Head of the Laboratory for Ichthyology and Marine Fisheries at the Institute of Marine Biology, has been awarded a recognition for his outstanding contribution to scientific research and the international positioning of the University of Montenegro.
The recognition was awarded on behalf of the University by Rector Vladimir Božović, PhD, at the ceremonial session of the Senate of the University of Montenegro held at the end of the year.

Since 1996, Dr. Joksimović has been continuously engaged at the Institute of Marine Biology, where, through research on marine biological resources and fisheries biology, he contributes to the development of scientific thought and practical solutions in the field of marine sciences in Montenegro and beyond.
His scientific work encompasses four key areas: ichthyology, ecology, fauna, and fisheries biology, with a focus on various species of marine fish in the Adriatic Sea and the Eastern Mediterranean.

Throughout his career, he has led or participated in over 30 international, national, and market-oriented research projects, contributing to both the academic community and the formulation of concrete measures in fisheries and the protection of marine ecosystems.
His role in the education and mentorship of young researchers, many of whom are now recognized scientists internationally, has been particularly highlighted.

As Director of the Institute of Marine Biology for three terms (2007–2013 and 2020–2023), Dr. Joksimović enhanced the Institute’s capacities in infrastructure, organization, and international cooperation. Under his leadership, the Institute actively participated in Montenegro’s EU accession negotiations in the field of fisheries (Chapter 13) and significantly increased its participation in international projects and exchange programs.

Through ERASMUS+ mobility, Dr. Joksimović has lectured and presented scientific activities as a visiting professor at universities in Ancona, Split, and Kragujevac.

By unanimous decision of the Scientific Council of the University of Montenegro, Dr. Aleksandar Joksimović has been recognized as an individual who, through decades of scientific, professional, and mentoring work, as well as international engagement, has made an indelible contribution to elevating reputation of the University of Montenegro, its internationalization, and its recognition within the European research area.
