Summary

Maria Antoniadou is Assistant Professor at the Chemical Engineering Department
at University of Western Macedonia. She has received her diploma in Chemical
Engineering at Patras University and completed her PhD at the Department of
Engineering Sciences. Thesis title: «Study of the photoelectrochemical production
of hydrogen and electricity by using hybrid organic-inorganic structures». She
worked as a post-doctoral researcher at Chemical Engineering Department, Patras
University, on many parallel projects in the field of photocatalysis,
photoelectrochemical water splitting and solar energy conversion. Since March
2014 she has been working as a post-doctoral researcher at the Institute of
Nanoscience and Nanotechnology, NCSR “Demokritos”. Her research interests
focus on advanced materials and devices for energy harvesting. She is also
currently the author of 46 peer-reviewed scientific publications with over 1800
citations (h-index 23) according to Scopus.
