It is situated in Dubna not far from Moscow in the Russian Federation. The JINR is a multidisciplinary international scientific center, which integrates the fundamental nuclear physics research, development and application of new technologies, as well as university education in the relevant fields of expertise. As an international recognition of the outstanding JINR achievements, the element number 105 of the Mendeleev’s periodic table has been called Dubnium. The Institute was established with the aim of uniting the efforts, scientific and material potentials of its Member States for investigations of the fundamental properties of matter. Today JINR unites 18 Member States, while the overall JINR partnership network includes 1000+ organizations in 70+ countries.

The main fields of JINR activity are theoretical and experimental studies in elementary particle physics, nuclear physics, and condensed matter physics; they include also advances theory, radiation biology, computing and information technologies, detector development and R&D. Remarkable part of JINR scientific projects is focused on applied research with high innovation potential. As of today, JINR employs 4500+ staff, including 1200 researchers. According to Web of Science database, over the past 5 years JINR has annually delivered 1400-1600 scientific publications. Republic of Serbia has the status of an associated member of the JINR since 2007 and the further development of the Serbia-JINR cooperation is one of the priorities of the JINR international cooperation.
