I was born in Patras, Greece and studied chemistry at the University of Patras, where I received my BSc and MSc. I then did my PhD in chemical engineering at the University of Manchester. My research has been in organic electronics and conducting polymers, and I have developed solution techniques to optimize organic field effect transistors, thin films, chemical sensors, and other devices. I have also gained experience in x-ray absorption spectroscopy, studying the effect of calcium carbonate lubricant additives on the crystallization of hydroxyapatite, and the preparation of titania nanotubes for water splitting applications. I am now working in the unconventional computing laboratory at the UWE Bristol under the supervision of Prof. A. Adamatzky, researching the electrical
properties of protenoid microspheres and developing analog and neuromorphic circuits and protenoid anaesthesia.
