I lead the Gene Control Mechanisms laboratory and the Genomics Facility at the IMBB in Greece since 2021. I dedicate my career to understanding fundamental molecular/cellular mechanisms explaining how specific genes are accurately expressed/repaired
The Institute of Molecular Biology and Biotechnology of the Foundation for Research and Technology Hellas (IMBB-FORTH). IMBB is one of the most prominent life science research institutions in Greece, with an outstanding record of scientific achievements, state of the art infrastructure and a broad range of research, innovation and educational activities. IMBB’s main mission is to pursue cutting-edge research and promote scientific excellence.
My post-docs combined molecular biology and bioinformatics to discover transcription-coupled mechanisms. In my current lab we aim to characterize essential chromatin- and transcription-related processes ruling healthy vs pathological gene expression programs by integrating biochemical, molecular, multi-omics and mathematical modeling approaches. I have secured competitive funding such as HFRI Greece 2.0, Twinning WIDERA and Fondation Santé, and I am keen on developing collaboration network offering expertise in molecular and cellular biology, omics analyses and mathematical modeling as proven by my publications in prestigious international journals
looking to host a talented post-doc who wnats to do interdisciplinary research on transcription regulation, epigenetics, omics, genome engineering, ML, simulation of biological processes...
We attempt to model and understand complex molecular interactions driving robust biological networks regulating RNA transcription levels. We focus on nascent RNAs (nRNAs) role in defining chromatin state and genome function.
