I am a fourth-year PhD student under the supervision of Nikos ZygourasLink opens in a new window. My interests are Stochastic Analysis, Interacting Particle Systems, and diffusions/ random walks in random environment. In particular, I am interested in (singular) Stochastic PDEs in the critical dimension and related particle systems.

Before coming to Warwick I completed my undergraduate studies (with an integrated Msc) in Applied Mathematics at the Technical University of Athens. My thesis was on the representation theory of compact Lie Groups and its applications in probability, under the supervision of Sofia Lambropoulou.
