Vita
I am a Full Professor (W3) of Virtual and Augmented Reality at the Faculty of Computer Science and the Research Campus STIMULATE at Otto von Guericke University Magdeburg, Germany.
I studied Computational Visualistics at Otto von Guericke University Magdeburg, completing my bachelor’s research at the Aristotle University of Thessaloniki in 2004 and my master’s thesis at the Center for Medical Diagnostic Systems and Visualization at the University of Bremen in 2006. After graduating, I joined the Fraunhofer Institute for Digital Medicine MEVIS in Bremen as a research scientist (2006–2013) and received my PhD in Computer Science from Jacobs University Bremen in 2012.
In 2013, I was appointed Junior Professor of Computer-Assisted Surgery at Otto von Guericke University Magdeburg. I held a DFG-funded research fellowship at Harvard Medical School from 2017 to 2018. From 2020 to 2024, I served as Extraordinary Professor of Virtual and Augmented Reality before being promoted to Full Professor in 2024.
