"Eleni Vasilaki"Bio:
I am Associate Professor (Senior Lecturer) in Computer Science, Faculty of Engineering, University of Sheffield and Visiting Professor (Gastprofessor) at the Faculty of Pharmaceutical, Biomedical and Veterinary Sciences, University of Antwerp. I also serve as Academic Editor for the scientific journals PLOS ONE and PeerJ and I am one of the directors of the Organisation for Computational Neurosciences. Within the group of Machine Learning, I lead the Computational Neuroscience Laboratory.
Prior to my Academic appointment in Sheffield, I was Scientific Collaborator in the groups of Prof. Wulfram Gerstner at the Ecole Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne (EPFL) and Prof. Walter Senn at the University of Bern. I hold a PhD in Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence (University of Sussex), a Masters in Microelectronics (University of Athens) and a Bachelors degree (with distinction) in Informatics & Telecommunications (University of Athens).
