In 2006 I completed my basic studies at the School of Geology of the Aristotle University of Thessaloniki (AUTh) and then I continued with my postgraduate studies in the specialization “Tectonics and Stratigraphy”. In September 2008 I started my doctoral thesis entitled “Paleontological and biostratigraphic study of the Neogene proboscideans of Greece”, which I defended in 2013.
From 2014 to 2024 I was a postdoctoral researcher at the Section of Palaeoanthropology (Department of Geosciences) of the University of Tübingen in Germany within the framework of research projects of the European Research Council (ERC) and the German Research Foundation (DFG). In 2025 I defended my habilitation at the University of Tübingen with a focus on Palaeoanthropology and Paleontology. The same year I returned to Greece and I was a postdoctoral researcher at the School of Geology (AUTh) in a project that included the digitization of the collections of the Museum of Geology, Palaeontology and Palaeoanthropology. In 2026 I was elected a member of the Laboratory Teaching Staff at the School of Geology (AUTh).
All these years I have been conducting research at an international level in Palaeontology of Neogene and Quaternary mammals with an emphasis on Taxonomy, Biochronology, Biostratigraphy, Taphonomy, Palaeoecology and Palaeobiogeography. From 2009 until today I have published more than 60 (peer-reviewed) papers in international scientific journals and books. In addition, I have participated in many international conferences and I have been a research visitor in many collections of Natural History Museums and Universities in Europe (e.g. Paris, Vienna, London, Budapest, Munich).
Since 2006, during my postgraduate studies and then during my Ph.D. at the School of Geology (AUTh), I participated in the teaching of laboratory exercises for the courses “Vertebrate Palaeontology” and “Historical Geology – Stratigraphy”, while from 2017 to 2024 I had an autonomous assignment of the theory of the course “Primate Evolution” and the laboratory of the course “Introduction to Human Evolution” at the Department of Geosciences of the University of Tübingen. Since 2018 I have been teaching at the postgraduate program Palaeontology – Geobiology and I have been a Supervisor, Member of the three-member Committee or External Collaborator in many theses of the direction Macropaleontology.
Since 2004, I have been continuously participating in palaeontological excavations and surface surveys in various Neogene and Quaternary localities and sedimentary basins of Greece (e.g., Axios Valley, Mygdonia Basin, Megalopolis Basin) and I have extensive experience in the excavation, conservation and inventory of fossils. In recent years, I have also organized and supervised fieldwork.
