WELCOME TO THE PERSONAL WEB PAGE OF
Dr. Andreas Scorilas, Ph.D
Professor of Clinical Biochemistry,
Department of Biochemistry & Molecular Biology, Faculty of Biology
National and Kapodistrian University of Athens, Greece.
Prof. Scorilas research team's interests include the discovery and study of novel molecular biomarkers in the diagnosis, prognosis and treatment monitoring of human malignancies, as well as the development of highly sensitive methodologies for the reliable quantification of ncRNAs, mRNA and protein expression of cancer related genes.
He was the major investigator:
- in the discovery and cloning of many cancer-related genes,
- in the development of many novel bioanalytical methodologies, useful in Biochemistry and Molecular Diagnostics.
- in the clarification of the clinical value of kallikrein family genes and other cancer-related genes in various neoplasms.
- in the development of a novel ultra-sensitive and reliable molecular methodology for the quantitative determination
of small non-coding RNA molecules (miRNA) - internationally established today.
- in the development of a new ultra-sensitive and reliable molecular methodology for the detection of mutant strains
of SARS-CoV-2 in environmental and wastewater samples - internationally established today.
He has established many active scientific partnerships in Greece, Canada, US and EU and has participated in numerous
large-scale and demanding research grants.
