I'm a 3rd year PhD student working on molecular modelling of membrane/peptide systems. My supervisors are Dr. Lev Sarkisov and Dr. Tina Duren.

I did my undergraduate studies at the National Technical University of Athens, on Applied Mathematics and Physical Sciences. My diploma thesis had the title "Mathematical Modelling in Biology and Contagious Deseases". I continued my studies with a M.Sc. on Mathematical Modelling in Modern Technologies. My master thesis was in colaboration with the Institute of Microelectronics of National Center of Scientific Research "Democritos" and my supervisor was Dr. Evangelos Gogolides. The thesis was entitled "Global modeling of the gas phase in a Plasma Reactor".
