I am a PhD candidate in the Division of Clinical Neurology at the University of Nottingham, UK. Since September 2006, I have been a member of the CMIAG Medical Image Analysis group and a Marie Curie Research Fellow. My current research focuses on Diffusion-Weighted MR Imaging reconstruction and brain tractography. My supervisors are Dr Christopher Tench and Dr Bai Li. I received my Diploma in Electronics and Computer Engineering from the Technical University of Crete, Chania, Greece in 2003, where I focused on digital hardware design for biomedical micro-processor based embedded systems under the supervision of Prof. Apostolos Dollas. I, then, joined the Biomedical Engineering department at the University of Minnesota, Twin-Cities, USA as a research assistant and graduated with a Master’s of Science in 2005. I specialized on electric fields of the brain and deep brain electric stimulation, as this is applied for treatment of Parkinson’s disease. My thesis was on a biophysical computer model of electric stimulation of the subthalamic nucleus and this was conducted under the supervision of Prof. Peter Steinmetz. In July 2005, I joined the Harrington department of Bioengineering at Arizona State University, Tempe, USA where I worked as a research assistant in the Brain Modeling Laboratory with Prof. Peter Steinmetz. My research focused on computational neuroscience techniques and electrophysiology of the central nervous system. |
