Prof. Theodoros Samaras

Theodoros Samaras received an MSc degree in medical physics (with distinction) from the University of Surrey, UK, in 1991, and a PhD degree from Aristotle University of Thessaloniki, Greece, in 1996. In 1998, he joined the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology (ETH) in Zurich, where he was involved in the computational dosimetry of electromagnetic fields. Subsequently, he moved to the Erasmus Medical Centre of Rotterdam, where he conducted research on the quality assurance of superficial microwave hyperthermia with a Marie Curie Postdoctoral Fellowship from the European Commission. In December 1999, he returned to Aristotle University of Thessaloniki, where he is currently a Professor of Bioelectromagnetics. His research interests include numerical techniques and computational multiphysics modelling with applications in biomedical technology and the safety of electromagnetic fields.
