About me



My name is Ioannis Psarros and I am a 3rd year Phd student at the University of Athens, Greece, under the supervision of Prof. Ioannis Z. Emiris. After graduating from the school of Informatics and Telecommunications in the University of Athens I attended the interdepartmental Graduate Program in Logic, Algorithms and Computation at the same university. I am now a member of the Laboratory of Algebraic and Geometric Algorithms .
