Short Bio:

Vassilis Alimisis  is a postdoctoral researcher at the Archimedes AI unit within the Athena Research Center. He received the B.Sc. degree (Hons.) in physics and the M.Sc. degree in electronics and communications from the University of Patras, Patras, Greece, in July 2017 and March 2019, respectively, and the Ph.D. degree from the National Technical University of Athens (NTUA), Athens, Greece, in June 2024, under the supervision of Professor Paul P. Sotiriadis. He is an Analog IC Design Engineer and an AI Computing Researcher. His Ph.D. Thesis titled “Integrated Circuit Architectures for Classical and Neural Computing With Applications in Artificial Intelligence” and research were supported and financed by the E.L.K.E. NTUA Scholarships. Currently, he is  is a postdoctoral researcher at the Archimedes AI unit within the Athena Research Center, an Adjunct Lecturer at the Department of Digital Industry Technologies, National and Kapodistrian University of Athens (NKUA), Athens and a Postdoctoral Researcher at the School of Electrical and Computer Engineering, NTUA. During his Ph.D., he was a Teaching Assistant in undergraduate and graduate courses and supervised several Diploma Thesis (more than 20). He has authored and co-authored several journal articles and conference papers (more than 80 publications).
