His scientific interest is connected with green chemical approach to reactions of organic compounds, especially focused to aerobic oxidative transformations catalysed by non-metal catalysts and halogenations performed in aqueous media and ionic or fluorous liquids or under solvent-free reactions conditions. He is the author of 138 scientific articles published in high ranked scientific journals and his work was refereed more than 2800 times in the scientific literature, Hirsh index 31, and h10=25, and is following these data ranked among three most efficient Slovene organic chemists. Up to now 12 PhD students finished their postgraduate studies under his supervision and one PhD student is actually studying under his supervision. The team of Dr. Stavber is internationally recognised research group of experts and specialists for organohalogen chemistry and organic green chemistry. He is also the reviewer for more than 30 scientific journals among them: Green Chemistry (senior reviewer), Organic Letters, Journal of Organic Chemistry, Chemical Reviews, Green Chemistry Letters and Reviews, Organic and Biomolecular Chemistry…. He is also the member of Editorial Board of Chemical Sciences Journal, Current Green Chemistry and E-Journal of
