About

I received the Diploma in Electrical and Computer Engineering in 2012 and the Ph.D. in wireless communications in 2016, both from the Aristotle University of Thessaloniki (AUTh). My thesis was titled “Interference mitigation techniques in modern wireless communication systems.”

With my team, I try to make scientific breakthroughs and then build an interface between fundamental research and applied innovation. I have (co-)authored more than 160 technical papers, journal articles, conference papers, book chapters and technical reports. Two patents (one national, one European) have been granted to me, and I have recently filed four more.
