My primary research interests are in Engineering Seismology, with emphases on ground motion numerical simulation with the method of finite-differences. My research also involves: Strong motion records processing (analog and digital) and study of strong ground motion properties (GMPEs of shallow and intermediate depth earthquakes). In addition I am working on basic seismological issues such as earthquake relocation, seismic record analysis etc.
Up to date, I have 17 research articles published or submitted for publication in peer-reviewed journals and more than 20 published articles in the proceedings of peer-reviewed international or national conferences and workshops. My work is widely recognized with more than 200 citations in peer reviewed journals and conferences as found from the International Citation Index (ISI), Scopus, Google Books, Google Scholar as well as from MSc and PhD theses and conference proceedings. In addition, I have participated with several presentations in international and national conferences and workshops. Finally, I have co-authored 11 technical reports for various research projects that I have participated.
As an employee of the Seismological Station of Thessaloniki my duties involve the uninterruptable operation of the computer infrastructure, as well as for the various types of networks (private, public and satellite) necessary for the exchange of seismological data. I am also responsible for the optimization of the HYDRA (Nanometrics) automatic location system. Since 2001 I perform regular shifts in the Seismological Station of Thessaloniki, on daily basis, for real-time seismicity monitoring, which includes earthquake location, seismic waveform analysis and issuance of official announcements for public and state information.
I can speak and communicate in the following lanquages
Parts of my PhD thesis were realized in the computer Grid infrastructures of Aristotle University of Thessaloniki, in collaboration with the technical stuff of the Scientific Computing Center, where I have gained significant experience in submitting, executing and debugging jobs in computer Grid environments. Also, I am involved in the migration and implementation of critical services of the Seismological Station of Thessaloniki, addressing to public and state awareness, in Cloud-computing environments (Project funded by Venus-C organization).
I am familiar with the following programming languages

Since December of 2006 I am working in the Seismological Station of the Aristotle University of Thessaloniki.
As an employee of the Seismological Station of Aristotle University of Thessaloniki, I am responsible for the uninterruptable operation of the computer infrastructure, as well as for the various types of networks (private, public and satellite) necessary for the exchange of seismological data. I am also responsible for the optimization of the HYDRA automatic location system, currently operating in the Seismological Station of Aristotle University of Thessaloniki in the frame of the Hellenic Unified Seismological Network (HUSN) project.
Visiting Research Scientist, Comenius University, Bratislava, Slovakia. This visit has been realized in the frame of the European Project "SPICE: Seismic wave Propagation and Imaging in Complex media: a European network". During my visit I have incorporated the method of Perfect Matching Layers ((PML) in a computer code that implements the method of finite-differences for numerical simulations of seismic waves.

Feel free to contact me for information regarding my research work
I was born in Thessaloniki, Greece in 1974. In 1994 after successfully entered the state entrance examinations I enrolled in the study program of the School of Physics of Aristotle University of Thessaloniki. I concluded my studies in 2000 and I was awarded with the BSc degree in Physics.
In 2000 I entered the postgraduate study program of the School of Geology, Department of Geophysics and by the end of 2002 I have been awarded with the MSc degree in Geophysics. In the frame of my postgraduate studies I have completed my master's thesis with title "Relocation of hypocentral earthquake parameters of Greece with the use of data from local experiments and effects in the strong motion attenuation relations".
In 2003 I entered the PhD program of the School of Geology, Department of Geophysics and under the supervision of Professor C.B. Papazachos I have concluded my PhD thesis with title "Strong ground motion simulation using 2D and 3D models", which I successfully defended in 2008.
Since December 2006, I am working in the Seismological Station of Aristotle University of Thessaloniki.
My research interests are focused mainly on Engineering Seismology, with emphases on strong motion properties and ground motion simulation with various techniques
I have reviewed a significant number of papers for the following scientific journals
I am a member of the following unions
I was involved in the organization of the computational seismology sessions in the following conferences and/or meetings
