At the begining of 2020,  under the supervision of Prof. Iossif  Papadakis, she started working on a project about the X-ray variability in AGN.

In the end of 2019,  under the supervision of Prof. Iossif  Papadakis, in parallel with the physics coursework, he started studying topics related to the spectrum of accretion disks in active galactic nuclei.
 

In 2018 she started a project on intrinsically polarized stars, under the supervision of professor Konstantinos Tassis. She then commenced her undergraduate thesis, entitled "Detecting artefacts in Robopol images using Deep Convolutional Neural Networks" in which, with the help of PhD candidate Rafael Skalidis, she  analyzed data taken outside the mask of the RoboPol instrument.

In the third year of her undergraduate studies (2018), she started working on her diploma thesis, entitled "Classification of stars to normal and intrinsically polarized", under the supervision of Prof. Kostantinos Tassis. For her MSc project she is working on mid-infrared spectroscopy of luminous interacting galaxies under the supervision of Dr. Tanio Diaz Santos.

He participated as a high school student in the Students' Astronomy and Space Science contest where he reached the third phase of the contest for two consecutive years (2015,2016).  His undergraduate thesis, under the supervision of Professor Andreas Zezas, was on X-ray binary population modelling.
 

Angelos Karakonstantakis  is currently preparing his MSc thesis, modeling AGN's variability in X-rays, under the supervision of Prof. Iossif Papadakis.

During the summer of 2019 he attended a research program at the European Space Research and Technology Centre (ESTEC) of ESA in the Netherlands. He is working with Prof. Andreas Zezas in topics related to observational astrophysics and machine learning.

Alexandros Tsouros joined the Institute of Astrophysics as a PhD student in August 2020 to work under the supervision of Prof. V. Pavlidou. In 2021 he was awarded a fellowship from the Hellenic Foundation for Research & Innovation towards the completion of his thesis entitled "Reconstructing the Magnetic Field of the Milky Way via Astrophysical Techniques and Numerical Simulations", being ranked 1st in Greece in the field of Natural Sciences In 2024 he received the "Eleftherios N. Economou Doctoral Student Research Award” from the Department of Physics.
