Evangelos Markakis has been a faculty member, currently an Associate Professor, in the department of Informatics of the Athens University of Economics and Business, since 2009. He received his M.Sc. (2004) and Ph.D. degree (2005) in computer science from the Georgia Institute of Technology, USA. Following that, he worked as a postdoctoral researcher at the University of Toronto (Canada, 2005-2006) and at CWI (Center for Mathematics and Computer Science, the Netherlands, 2007-2008). He has also held research appointments with Stanford University (visiting scholar, Spring 2014) and Input Output Global (research fellow, Fall 2022-Summer 2023). His research interests lie in theoretical computer science and algorithmic game theory, with an emphasis on resource allocation problems, mechanism design, and more broadly on algorithms for combinatorial optimization. He has also participated as a management committee member in EU networks on related topics and in several basic research projects funded by the EU and by the Greek State.
