About Nedeljka
Nedeljka Rosic, PhD, serves as Senior Lecturer in Biomedical Sciences in the Faculty of Health at Southern Cross University. She obtained her PhD in Biomedical Sciences from the University of Queensland, where she also conducted postdoctoral research as a Research Fellow. With prior association at Bond University and over 20 years of national and international experience, Rosic is a multidisciplinary researcher specializing in xenobiotic enzymes, directed evolution, drug discoveries, medicinal bio-products, skin protection via natural marine sunscreens, environmental stress biomarkers, host-microbe interactions, genomics, protein engineering, oxidative stress, UV protection, Parkinson's disease, organic sunscreens, natural bioproducts, genetic polymorphism, and bioactive compounds. As a member of Southern Cross University's Reefs and Oceans Research Cluster, she collaborates with national and international scientists and industry partners, including the CSIRO, contributing to UN Sustainable Development Goals through her work.
Rosic has secured competitive fellowships and grants, including the Australian Research Council's Discovery Early Career Researcher Award (DECRA). Her influential publications encompass 'Mycosporine-like amino acids: making the foundation for organic personalised sunscreens' (Marine Drugs, 2019), 'Unveiling the Anti-Aging Potential of Marine Natural Bioproducts' (Marine Drugs, 2025), 'Proteomic Studies for the Identification and Characterization of Marine Bioactive Molecules' (Marine Drugs, 2025), 'Unfolding the secrets of coral-algal symbiosis' (2014), 'Transcriptomic Changes in Coral Holobionts Provide Insights into Physiological Challenges of Future Climate and Ocean Change' (2015), and 'Differential impact of heat stress on reef-building corals under different light conditions' (2020). Amassing approximately 1,868 citations on Google Scholar, her research significantly advances bioproducts, omics, biomarkers, molecular biology, genetics, and marine biotechnology. At the university, she teaches Molecular Genetics, Haematology, and Clinical Biochemistry, and supervises PhD, MSc, and Honours students in biomedical science, sport science, and environmental genomics/transcriptomics. A dedicated STEM role model, particularly for young women in science, she engages communities through lectures on her research and career.
