Prof. Dr. Makis Angelakeris is a professor at the School of Physics at the Aristotle University of Thessaloniki. His main scientific interest stems from the synthesis of magnetic thin films, multilayers and nanoparticles. Under this research scheme, he also works also works on structural, magnetic, electric, magneto-optic characterization of magnetic nanostructures. Within the last 10 years he is also involved in Biomagnetism applicability focusing on Magnetic Particle Hyperthermia and Magneto Mechanical Stress.
His work is highlighted by two monographs: a review article on Magnetic nanoparticles: A multifunctional vehicle for modern theranostics, M. Angelakeris, Review Article (in Biochim Biophys Acta Gen Subj. 2017 Jun;1861(6):1642-1651) and a Book chapter on Magnetic Particle hyperthermia, in Vol. 8 of 21st Century Nanoscience, A handbook, (10 volumes), Taylor & Francis, in press (2020).
He is currently co-ordinating the MagnaCharta Group (Magnetic Nanostructure Characterization: Technology and Applications http://magnacharta.physics.auth.gr). The MagnaCharta group focuses on modern magnetic nanomaterials from systematic synthesis and robust investigation of physical properties together with technological applicability of nanomagnetism on diverse aspects such as information storage, biomedicine and sustainable growth.
