Since 2022, under the supervision of Prof. Vasiliki Pavlidou, she is working on the dependence of the turnaround density of galaxy clusters on the cosmological model.

During his undergraduate studies, he completed his senior thesis entitled “Cosmic-ray air-shower simulations across the ankle: Combining mixed Galactic composition with new physics above 50 TeV”, under the supervision of Prof. V. Pavlidou and PhD candidate Stylianos Romanopoulos. Since 2021, he is also working with Professor Elias Kiritsis on a project on “Holographic RG flows on deformed 3-sphere”.

Since 2021, under the supervision of Prof. Vasiliki Pavlidou, he is using machine learning methods to detect the turnaround radius of galaxy clusters.

During his undergraduate studies, he completed his senior thesis entitled "The energy spectrum of accretion discs in AGN" under the supervision of Prof. I. Papadakis. He is currently working on his master thesis, which extends the previous work to include relativistic effects in accretion discs.

In September 2021 he started working on his senior thesis under the supervision of Professor Vasiliki Pavlidou and her graduate student Stelios Romanopoulos on Backtracking of ultra-high-energy cosmic-rays through the Galaxy’s magnetic field in order to determine their sources and their composition. 

In 2019, she was an intern at the University of Cardiff and, in 2021, she won a scholarship “Scaling relations in nearby galaxies: the interplay of stars, dust and gas” at the Università degli Studi di Padova” (Italy). She joined the Department of Physics of the University of Crete and the Institute of Astrophysics (IA-FORTH) in November 2022 as a PhD student under the supervision of Dr. Tanio Diaz Santos.

During his undergraduate studies he completed his senior thesis entitled "Relativistic QED versus classical magnetic resonant cross-sections" under the supervision of Prof. N. Kylafis and Prof. J. Truemper (MPE). Since 2019, he is a member of the Institute of Astrophysics currently working with Prof. N. Kylafis on a project related to cyclotron line formation in a radiative shock. In parallel, he studies the properties of various dark matter models, as well as their impact on structure formation and strong gravitational lensing under the supervision of Prof. V. Pavlidou, Prof. K. Tassis, and Dr. C. Casadio. Moreover, he is involved in the SMILE project focusing on theoretical calculations of the lensing probabilities.  In 2021, he was awarded a fellowship from the IA/FORTH and in 2022, he received the "ELISABETH KARAMINTZOU" award for his academic excellence.

In 2020, he started studying ultra-high—energy cosmic-rays and working on modeling mixed-composition ultra-high—energy cosmic-ray air showers in the Earth’s atmosphere, under the supervision of Prof. V. Pavlidou. In the same year, he started working with Prof. E. Kiritsis on a project on "Holographic RG flows on deformed 3-sphere".
 

Since 2021, under the supervision of Prof. Vasiliki Pavlidou, he is using machine learning methods to detect the turnaround radius of galaxy clusters.
