Miloš Marić

He was sent to Moscow to work as a doctor at the Lefortovo Military Hospital, and continued to study and worked at the Moscow University Chair of Histology.

In Moscow, Dr. Marić became acquainted with biologist and histologist Professor Vladimir Porfirevich Karpov (1870-1943). Karpov became the dean of a Medical School at the University of Ekaterinoslav (now Dnipro) and Dr. Marić was invited to work at the Dnipropetrovsk Medical Institute in the Dnieper, Ukraine.

On his arrival in the Dnieper, Dr. Miloš Marić married Karpov's daughter Marija Vasiljevna Karpova, although his first marriage was officially over when he was declared missing and his first wife Martha was "widowed". He never returned to Serbia again.

In 1925, when Professor Karpov was called back to Moscow, to resume his former duties, Dr. Marić succeeded Karpov as Chair of the Histology Department of the university.

In 1928, Dr. Marić received a full professorship at the university. In 1930, he was elected Head of the Department of Histology at the Saratov State Medical University in the Russian city of Saratov. At the same time, Dr. Marić also held the top Chair of the Histology Department at the Zootechnical-Veterinary School of the same university.

He quickly became a respected scientist in Soviet Russia, publishing scientific articles and monographs in the field of mitosis and amitosis. Some Russian scientists are convinced that Milos Marić (in Russia known as Milos Milosevic Maric) laid the foundations of the medical field that is now called cloning. Along with these studies, Marić worked and prepared for the study of the nervous system, but was interrupted by the Great Patriotic War. These works were published only after the war and Marić's death and served as a basis for further research in this field. In Saratov, there still exists a memorial room dedicated to him.
