Originally trained in biochemistry, I hold a PhD in Molecular Biology from the University of Athens. As a PhD student and a post-doctoral fellow I have worked in Computational Gene Prediction, Genome Linguistics and Nucleosome Positioning. I joined the University of Crete in 2010 and started CG2 in 2013. My main interests lie in the fields of Genome Architecture and Evolution, Computational Epigenomics and Chromatin Structure.
