Dr. Xenofon Strakosas, received his BS degree in Physics in 2008, and his Master’s degree in Nanosciences and Nanotechnologies in 2011, both from the Aristotle University of Thessaloniki, Greece. Then he moved to France and obtained his PhD from the Ecole Nationale Supérieure des Mines de Saint-Étienne in 2015, under the Supervision of Professors George Malliaras and Roisin Owens. His research involved integration of enzymes and proteins with Organic Electrochemical Transistors (OECTs). The former resulted in OECT based enzymatic sensing platforms for diagnostics, and latter improved the biotic/abiotic interface between neural cells and OECTs, for in vitro applications.
