I am a research fellow in the group Theoretische Informatik, Freie Universitat, Berlin, working with Prof. H. Alt, Prof. G. Rote, and Prof. C. Knauer.

Previously, I've learned some bioinformatics in the group of Algorithms in Computational Genomics at TAU headed by Prof. Ron Shamir. My research there was supported by the Edmond J. Safra Bioinformatics Program.

I have also been a post-Doc in the group of Logic in der Informatik headed by Prof. Martin Grohe, at the Institut fur Informatik, Humboldt University, Berlin.

Before that I was at IICS, Utrecht University, in the Center for Geometry, Imaging and Virtual Enviroments headed by Prof. Mark Overmars, where I did my PhD under the supervision of Dr. Remco Veltkamp.

I got my Diploma at the Department of Computer Engineering & Informatics, University of Patras, with Prof. A. Tsakalidis, and an MSc from DoC, Imperial College, University of London.

Research: Computational Geometry & Geometric Optimization, Approximation Algorithms, and Parameterized Complexity Theory.

Teaching: Parameterized complexity theory (Sommer Semester '09).
