In collaboration with the CARIC (Cancer Research & Innovation Center) and the Cyprus University of Technology, the German Oncology Center is hosting a seminar.
Speaker: Dr. Fotis Psomopoulos, Senior Researcher, Institute of Applied Biosciences (INAB) - Center for Research and Technology Hellas
Dr. Fotis Psomopoulos is a Senior Researcher at the Institute of Applied Biosciences (INAB), at the Center for Research and Technology Hellas (CERTH), in Thessaloniki, Greece. He holds a PhD in Electrical and Computer Engineering, with a focus on Bioinformatics. His research interests lie at the intersection of Bioinformatics and Machine Learning, primarily working on the design and implementation of data-mining algorithms for knowledge extraction from large datasets in Life Sciences. In this context, he was selected to be an EGI Champion of Life Sciences in 2013, an RDA-EU Ambassador for Bioinformatics in 2019, and he is currently co-leading the ELIXIR Machine Learning Focus Group. In addition to his research activities, he is particularly active in training efforts and initiatives (such as the Carpentries and GOBLET). He is the Training Coordinator of ELIXIR-GR, a member of the ELIXIR Training Platform Executive Committee, and a member of the EOSC Association Task Force on Research careers, recognition and credit. He is also a strong advocate of Open Science, a mentor in the Open Life Science community, a co-author of the Open Science Training Handbook, as well as the Greek National Plan for Open Science, and a founding member of the Hellenic Open Science Initiative.
