I studied at the University of Patras, Greece (BSc, 1984) and the University of Maryland, USA (MA, 1988, Ph.D, 1992). I have worked at the University of Maryland, the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) and the Institute of Statistical Sciences, Taiwan and taught at the Universities of Maryland, Athens, Cyprus, Aegean and Hellenic Open Univ. .
My research activities cover various areas of Statistics such as Statistical Modeling, Model Selection Criteria, Biostatistics, Medical Statistics, Information Theory, Divergence Measures, Time Series Analysis, Goodness of Fit Tests, Applied Probability, Markov and Semi-Markov Processes, Economic Demography & Finance and Reliability Theory. I have published more than 50 articles and given about 60 invited presentations in international conferences, symposia, and universities all over the world.
I have published jointly with I. Vonta (National Technical University of Athens) the textbook (in Greek) Applied Statistical Analysis and Elements of Probability (Εφαρμοσμένη Στατιστική Ανάλυση & Στοιχεία Πιθανοτήτων, 2015), Paraskinio Ed, Athens, Greece & edited jointly 3 collective volumes Applied Reliability Engineering and Risk Analysis: Probabilistic Models and Statistical Inference with I. Frenkel, A. Lisnianski & A. Kleyner(2014, Wiley), Statistical, Stochastic and Data Analysis Methods and Applications with T. Oliveira & C. Skiadas (2016, ISAST) and Recent Advances in Multi-State Reliability with I. Frenkel & A. Lisnianski (2018, Springer).
I have great experience in the design and execution of research projects which involve statistical analysis of medical, biomedical, socioeconomic and economic data and have been involved in a number of research programs with external funding over the last 15 years. I was the Principal Scientific and Financial Investigator of research projects on The adaptability of the Cyprus Public Sector on the operating challenges of the European Union funded by the Cyprus Government (2002-2003) and on Cypriot Household Portfolios funded by the Central Bank of Cyprus (1997-2007).
I have also been involved as Statistical Investigator on various medical research programs funded by the National Research Foundation of Cyprus and the European Union.
