Professor of Animal Genetics and Breeding in the Department of Agriculture of the Faculty of Geotechnical Science of International Hellenic University. I am a graduate of the Department of Agricultural Technology of ATEITh and I have an MSc in Animal Reproduction from the University of Aberdeen (Euroean Union scholarship) and a PhD in Quantitative Genetics from Edinburgh University (State Scholarship Foundation of Greece). I have previosuly worked as researcher in the Roslin Institute (UK), in one of the leading Poyltry Genetics and Breeding Companies in the world (Aviagen Ltd.) and as an agricultural expert officer in one of the largest food companies in the world (Nestle).
