About me

Hi! Iam Pavlos (he/him). I have been working as a software engineer in various domains since 2017.

I studied Electrical and Computer Engineering at Aristotle University of Thessaloniki (aka AUTh). Back then, in 2007, I recall my biggest question being how is it possible for a mobile phone to be able to make calls, without cord. Doesn't it seem magic that concrete words, with the exact (well, approximate enough) voice of your friend on the other side of the planet gets transmitted to you over thin air? To me it did, besides I had a Nokia for 2-3 years. It was so flashing new. So I started studying hard, mostly to answer this question.

Along the way of answering questions, more questions arise. How does the carrier, an electromagnetic wave intract with tissue? How does sound affect us? What is psychoacoustics? How does one radiate on a tumour and why is it good? It seems that all these physics do not only apply on phones, but also on the human body. To answer these questions, I continued sudying biomedical engineering in TU Delft.

But then, even more questions arise. How can one efficiently analyze loads of medical images? What is an image processing pipeline?

This is how I found myself working in software. Trying to answer questions. It looks like, the more questions one tries to answer, the more questions arise.
