Professional Activities

Obviously, I am targeting both quality & quantity for my publication record. The quantity is mostly related with different research areas (including engineering, maths, economics, insurance and finance) that I am currently working actively with my PhD, Post-Doc students and my collaborators. Conference presentations are utilized for networking and to identify or confirm the directions of development with the greatest potential and impact. Only these are extended into Journal papers to attract key attention. Further, journal papers involve a wide international academic collaboration to utilize synergies and substantial industry collaboration to demonstrate practical values. I have collaborators in Columbia University, Caltech, University of Maryland, Cornell University (USA), Chinese Academy of Science, Shanghai University and XJTLU (China), Sungkyunkwan University (Korea), Imperial College London, City University, Glasgow University, Brighton University, Cardiff University (UK), Monash University (Australia), University of Palermo (Italy), University of Athens, Aristotle University of Athens, Alexander Technological University of Thessaloniki (Greece), Unilever (Research Department - UK), University of Technology (Mauritius) and, of course, in the University of Liverpool (UK).

Further selected indicators for my leading role in the international community are:
• 10 Plenary / Keynote / Special Invited Lectures at international conferences
• 2 Associate Editorship of an international journal
• 2 appointment as Guest Editor of Special Issue of International Journals
• 11 appointments as Chairman of international conferences, symposia, workshops
• 25 memberships in Editorial & Scientific Boards / Committees of conferences
• 6 appointments as advisor and reviewer for funding bodies and universities
• over 25 appointments as reviewer for journals and books
• 11 memberships in Professional Societies, including 3 in special committees
• 8 research grants with total value of about £ 21 Million

Moreover, I am the external examiner in Leeds Business School (also in the School of Mathematics, Leeds University UK) in the area of Financial Mathematics. The listed items are primarily associated with prestigious developments. For example, I have close links to FNA, including collaborative work with FNA founder Kimmo Soramaki. Starting in November 2012 University of Liverpool together with ETH Zurich have license for the desktop version of FNA – with each Network Theory student having access to their own FNA account.

I have been external examiner in MPhil/PhD thesis:
1. Brunel University, UK (MPhil, 2013)
2. Brunel University, UK (PhD, 2014)
3. University of Essex, UK (PhD, 2015)
4. Monash University, Australia (PhD, 2015)
5. Manchester University, UK (PhD, 2016)

I have been to the evaluation committees for more than 8 promotions in Greece, UK, Australia and Oman
