About me

I am a second year CS PhD student at Stony Brook University, advised by Dimitris Samaras. My work primarily focuses on generative models for Computer Vision. I am part of the Computer Vision Lab @ SBU and the group working on generative models for histopathology.

Previously, I was doing research at the IDT Lab of ITI-CERTH, working with Vasileios Mezaris and before that I graduated with an Integrated Master’s degree from the Electrical and Computer Engineering (ECE) department of the Aristotle University of Thessaloniki (AUTH), where I worked with Nestor Chatzidiamantis and George K. Karagiannidis.
