Dr. Zacharopoulos Athanasios
PostDoctoral Fellow

Dr. Athanasios Zacharopoulos received his Degree in Mathematics, 1999, from the Department of Mathematics in the Aristotle’s University of Thessaloniki. After an MSc in Vision Imaging and Virtual Environments he completed his PhD thesis “Three-Dimensional Shape-Based Reconstructions in Medical Imaging” from the Computer Science Department in University College London.  His main research interests lay in the field of (Biomedical) Imaging and more specifically 3D Image Reconstruction algorithms, Inverse problems, Parametric description of 3D surfaces and Boundary Element – Finite Elements modelling with main focus on the applications of Optical Tomography. He has been working as a Research Associate at FORTH since 2009.
