I grew up in Greece where I studied for my Bachelor’s Degree in Physics. Subsequently, I moved to the UK where I obtained first my Master’s degree (1991) followed by my Doctoral Degree (PhD) n Astrophysics from Queen Mary College, University of London. In 1995 I moved to Germany to take up a position at the Max Planck Institute for Extraterrestrial Physics near Munich. I returned to the UK in 2003 to take up a position in Astrophysics at the University of Oxford, where I have been ever since.
