Dr. Ioanna Sakellari is a postdoctoral researcher at FORTH. In 2011, she obtained her PhD in Physics from the University of Crete and, soon after, she moved as a postdoctoral researcher in the Department of Mechanical Engineering at the University of California at Berkeley. In 2013, she joined the 4th Physics Institute at the University of Stuttgart, where in 2015 she was awarded a Marie Sklodowska-Curie Individual Fellowship. Her research interests cover a wide range of scientific areas including Nanotechnology, Photonics, Metamaterials, and Materials Science.


Dr. Fasoulakis Michail is a Post-Doctoral research fellow at ICS-FORTH. He received his Ph.D degree from the University of Warwick, UK in 2017. His research focuses on (algorithmic) game theory and economics, algorithms, information theory, decision theory, operations research, communications and signal processing.


Dr. Melda Küçükdemirci is a Post-Doctoral research fellow at Laboratory of Geophysical-Remote Sensing & Archaeoenvironment (GeoSat ReSeArch Lab), of  Foundation for Research and Technology, Hellas (FORTH). She received her Ph.D degree from the University of Istanbul in 2014. Her research focuses on geophysical  prospection for archaeology, Ground Penetrating Radar, Magnetometry and data fusion and integration approaches.


Dr. Athanasios Argyriou is a Post-Doctoral research fellow at GeoSat ReSeArch Lab of IMS-FORTH. He received his Ph.D degree from the University of Portsmouth in 2012 and he continued as a Post-Doctoral fellow a FORTH. His research focuses on geoinformatic (GIS/Remote Sensing/Geophysics) applications regarding the assessment of natural hazards risks, geomorphometrics, land use changes, urban sprawl, cultural heritage conservation and archaeological landscape. He has 17 publications in peer reviewed journals and international conferences proceedings.


Dr. George J. Tserevelakis was born in Heraklion, Greece, in 1982. He received the B.Sc. in Physics (2006), M.Sc. in Optics and Vision (2008) and Ph.D. (2013) from the University of Crete, Greece and he is currently a post-doctoral fellow at the In Vivo Imaging Lab of IESL/FORTH. During 2013-2014, Dr. Tserevelakis was a post-doctoral fellow and member of the Institute of Biological and Medical Imaging in Munich. His research interests include the development and application of novel optical, acoustic and optoacoustic imaging systems for the monitoring of complex biological processes in a label-free manner at microscopic and mesoscopic scales. His expertise also includes the incorporation and use of femtosecond laser nanosurgery methodologies for the in-vivo processing of microscopic specimens, such as cancer cells, C.Elegans larvas etc. Furthermore, his scientific work is focused on the design of compact, hybrid instruments employing cutting-edge imaging technologies and adaptive optics systems, optimized exclusively for the diagnostics of Cultural Heritage artefacts, as well as, the on-line monitoring during the laser cleaning of these items. So far (2017), he has published 19 scientific papers in international journals, 4 papers in refereed conference proceedings, one book chapter and has one patent to his name.
