  2. Historical overview 1950 Founded by theCroatian Academy of Science and Arts First departments:Theoretical physicsMolecular physicsNuclear physicsElectronics 1952 Chemistry 1954 Biology 1955Independent institute for nuclear energy and nuclear sciences, financed by the Yugoslav Federal Commission for Nuclear Energy 1957. – RBI in collaboration with the University of Zagreb established the first postgraduate studies in this region

  3. 1963 Institute was reorganized to 7 Departments and achieved the multidisciplinary character Departments:Theoretical physicsNuclear and Atomic ResearchSolid stateElectronicsPhysical ChemistryOrganic Chemistry and BiochemistryBiology • financed by Federal and afterwards Croatian Council for Scientific Work;At present by the Ministry of Science, Education and Sports (MSES) 1969Center for Marine Research (Rovinj) 1990Molecular Medicine and Molecular Genetics
