Asimina graduated with a Diploma in Chemical Engineering from the Aristotle University of Thessaloniki in 2018. During her thesis which was based on the investigation of the biomimetic activity of newly-synthesized water-soluble titanium species in adipogenesis, she was first introduced in the unlimited potential of the combination of Chemical Engineering and Molecular Biology. In June 2019, she was accepted for a PhD position in the department of Chemical Engineering at the Aristotle University of Thessaloniki under the supervision of Associate Professor Aggeli Amalia. Her research interests include Microbiology, Metabolic Engineering and Membrane Bioreactors.
Outside the lab, Asimina enjoys hiking as well as travelling.
