Higher Education.

Doctoral Thesis in Laser Materials Processing (Ph.D., 1997) Mechanical Engineering, Department of the University of Thessaly in collaboration with Foundation for Research and Technology – Hellas, Institute of Electronic Structure and Laser (FORTH-IESL)

​

Bachelor of Science in Physics (B.Sc., 1988) University of Crete, Greece

Ioanna Zergioti is a Professor at the National Technical University of Athens, School of Applied Mathematics and Physical Sciences. She studied Physics at the University of Crete and she received the degree at the Foundation for Research and Technology-Hellas, for her work on the growth of thin nanocrystalline Carbide films and mechanisms using laser based process. In the framework of her PhD work she worked for the fall semester of 1996 in the Mechanical Engineering Department at the University of California, Berkeley on the Laser Induced Forward Transfer process. After her PhD, she worked as a post doctoral researcher in the Max Planck Institut für Biophysikalische Chemie in Göttingen, on Laser matter interactions studies. Then, she worked as a post-doctoral researcher in the Philips CFT on Laser Sintering of sol gels for electronics until 2000. She was a researcher for 4 years (1999-2003) at the Laser Applications Division of the Institute of Electronic Structure and Laser – FORTH, where she developed works on ultrashort laser microstructuring (etching and printing) of metals, oxides and biomaterials. Since September 2003 she was appointed at the National Technical University of Athens, School of Applied Mathematical and Physical Sciences and since 2019 she is a Professor. Her main activities are related to the laser microprinting of biological molecules and laser matter interaction studies for biotechnological applications and organic electronics.

​​

She has co-authored more than 127 publications in international refereed journals, 57 publications in conference proceedings, 9 chapter in scientific books, 13 patents related to laser transfer process for additive manufacturing and bioprinting. She has co-organised CLEO, EMRS and COLA conferences. Over the years she has gained experience in leading R&D activities in the frame of EU funded RIA as a principal investigator (in more than 20 projects overall). She has coordinated three European Research project, one H2020-FETOPEN-1-2016-2017 “LEAF-2D”, and two National Research projects through the Operational Program Competitiveness, Entrepreneurship and Innovation, under the call RESEARCH–CREATE–INNOVATE: "LP-DRUGS", "ΣΥΝ-LASER", and as PI in "ΕΛΑΙΩΝΑΣ" and as partner in "HELLAS –CH".
