Biography

Dr. Andreas Stylianou is an Assistant Professor at European University Cyprus, Nicosia, Cyprus. He received his PhD in Biomedical Engineering from the School of Electrical and Computer Engineering of the National Technical University of Athens (NTUA), Greece. He has also received a Bachelor of Science/Master of Science in Applied Physics from the School of Applied Mathematical and Physical Science of the NTUA and a Master of Science in Medical Physics from the Open University, United Kingdom. Finally, he holds a PhD in Social Aspects of Health from the Open University of Cyprus. In 2015, his postdoctoral project proposal was funded by the prestigious Marie Skłodowska-Curie individual fellowships, and, in 2019, he received the University of Cyprus Advanced Post-doctoral Research Fellowship. He is also the recipient of the prestigious “Young Researcher Award” for 2019 from the Cyprus Research and Innovation Foundation. He is leading the Cancer Mechanobiology and Applied Biophysics group, part of the Basic and Translational Cancer Research Center (BTCRC) at European University Cyprus. His primary academic interests include the investigation of the mechanical and biophysical properties of the tumor microenvironment, the understanding of cancer and stromal cell mechanosensing, and cell–substrate interactions. Additionally, the study of tumor fibrosis, the role of collagen in cancer progression, and the identification of collagen-based biomarkers lie within his research interests.
