| Dr. Panagiotis Elias graduated from the Department of Electronic Engineering at the Technological Educational Institute (TEI) of Piraeus. He obtained his Master of Science (MSc) from the National and Kapodistrian University of Athens (NKUA) in 2007. He completed his PhD through a joint supervision (co-tutelle) program between the École Normale Supérieure (ENS) in Paris, France, and the University of Patras. From 1998 to 2005, he worked as a Research Associate at the Institute for Astronomy, Astrophysics, Space Applications and Remote Sensing of the National Observatory of Athens (IAASARS-NOA). From 2005 to 2021 he worked as a Special Scientist, since 2021 he has been serving as an Associate Researcher in the field of “Space Applications with an emphasis on Geohazards” and since 2024 he has been serving as an Adjunct Researcher at the same Institute while at the same time he serves as an elected faculty member at the University of Patras, Department of Geology in the field of “Geodesy with Applications in Geology”. |
