Top 2% Update

I was recently listed in the Top 2% Scientists ranking based on verified data from Elsevier and Stanford University for the years 2023-2026. The data reflects my ongoing work at the Institute of Chemical Engineering Sciences in Greece, focusing on Information & Communication Technologies, with a subfield in Artificial Intelligence & Image Processing. The metrics highlight a global subfield rank of 7,328 and an H-index of 11. While these numbers offer a quantitative look at my research output over the past few years, my priority remains the practical application and continuous, quiet progression of my work in AI.

Showcasing AI in Space Medicine at IAC 2026

At the 77th International Astronautical Congress in Antalya, our team had the distinct honor of presenting our latest research, “The Astronaut’s Algorithm: Artificial Intelligence in Spaceflight-Associated Neuro-Ocular Syndrome (SANS).” Delivered as an oral presentation by Eirini Maliagkani and selected from over 8,300 global submissions, our work focuses on leveraging AI to tackle one of the primary health hurdles for astronauts on extended missions. As the senior author of this paper, I am immensely proud of the collaboration that made this possible. Connecting Greek ophthalmology and AI research with the broader aerospace community is a unique privilege, especially as we represent the 1st Department of Ophthalmology of the National and Kapodistrian University of Athens (NKUA) during its 190-year celebration. Congratulations to Eirini Maliagkani for a fantastic presentation, and a special thank you to my fellow co-authors Ilias Georgalas, Elpiniki Papageorgiou, Nick Kosmatos, and Aikaterini Chatzara for their dedication and expertise. 📸 © International Astronautical Federation (IAF)

Our Conference Paper got accepted at the 77th International Astronautical Congress (IAC 2026), Antalya, Türkiye, 5-9 Oct 2026!

Spaceflight-associated neuro-ocular syndrome (SANS) is one of the most important medical challenges associated with long-duration spaceflight. This systematic review aimed to comprehensively evaluate artificial intelligence (AI) models developed for the detection, prediction, and monitoring of SANS, with particular emphasis on model development, validation, performance, and operational readiness.

XAI Suite and Evidence-based AI validation tools

A cross-domain workbench for building, explaining and — critically — validating AI models before anyone trusts them. It couples model development with explainability outputs and an evidence-based assessment layer covering performance, calibration, uncertainty and reporting quality. Designed to be domain-agnostic: the same validation logic serves medical imaging, air quality, industrial and materials applications.

Explainable AI Suite for Nuclear Medicine

An end-to-end environment for developing and interrogating deep learning models on nuclear medicine and radiological images. It handles study import, model training and inference, and pairs every prediction with visual explanations, so that clinical users can see where the model looked rather than only what it decided.

Explainable AI Suite for Ophthalmic disease screening

A screening-oriented version of the suite, adapted to ophthalmic imaging. It supports automated detection of ocular disease from retinal images, presents case-level explanation maps alongside each result, and is structured around the workflow of a screening programme rather than a single-case reading.

Air Quality Sensor AI-assisted Calibration Suite

A dedicated tool for turning raw low-cost sensor output into reference-comparable data. It ingests sensor and co-located reference measurements, applies machine-learning correction models on top of the manufacturer algorithms, and reports how much the correction actually improves agreement — making calibration a documented, repeatable step instead of an ad-hoc one.

Smart Air Quality 2xPlus

The current generation of the Smart Air Quality platform, extending measurement into forecasting. Alongside real-time monitoring, it produces short-term pollutant predictions from the network’s own history, so that users get not only the present state of the air but a usable outlook on the hours ahead.
