Dr. Minas M. Stylianakis is an Assistant Professor at the Department of Nursing of the Hellenic Mediterranean University. Since July 2020, he has joined the Hybrid Nanostructures group at the Institute of Electronic Structure and Laser (IESL) of the Foundation for Research and Technology (FORTH) – Hellas as a Research Scientist. He received his PhD degree in Chemistry, in 2015 from the University of Crete. His expertise lies in the synthesis, solution processing and characterization of novel universal carbon- and graphene-based materials, 2D materials, metal oxides and organic compounds (small molecules and polymers). His fields of interest include the development of biomedical and environmental applications, regenerative nanomedicine (drug-delivery systems, implants design/development and tissue engineering), self-healing and antimicrobial coatings, additive manufacturing and energy production and storage. He has published 56 articles in international peer-reviewed journals, 3 book chapters, one edited book, 3 peer-reviewed articles in conference proceedings and 2 laboratory manuals. To date, he has received 2235 citations (2118 non-self), with an h-index of 28 (Scopus 01/2022), (h-index 30, 2800 citations, Google Scholar 01/2022). He has presented his work in 4 invited talks in international meetings and in more than 50 times in international conferences. He also serves as Referee, Guest Editor and Editorial Board Member in high impact international scientific journals. Finally, he is a certified evaluator for the General Secretariat for Research and Technology (GSRT), Greece, since 2017.
