Christos Manopoulos received an integrated M.Sc.E. degree in Mechanical Engineering from the School of Engineering at the University of Patras, Greece, in 1995. Subsequently, he obtained the M.Sc.E. and Ph.D. degrees in Biomedical Engineering in 1999 and 2009, respectively, through a European Postgraduate Programme. He has participated as a Mechanical Engineer and has successfully completed 15 European and National R&D projects within his research area. He currently holds the position of Associate Professor and serves as the Director of the Biofluid Mechanics Laboratory in the Fluids Section at the School of Mechanical Engineering, National Technical University of Athens, Greece. He has authored or coauthored more than 100 journal and conference papers and holds one patent. His research interests include theoretical, computational, and experimental methods in biofluid mechanics, unsteady oscillating flows, fluid analysis, and the investigation and design of biomedical systems, devices, and equipment related to biofluid mechanics technology. Additionally, he focuses on the development of biofluid mechanics models in technology and living organisms under normal and pathological conditions, valveless pumping, peristaltic pumps, as well as simulation and prototyping of medical devices and machines. He received a scholarship from the State Scholarships Foundation of Greece for his Ph.D., a Doctoral Research award in 2009, and several awards for some of his research publications.
