Biography

​​

I am a consultant ophthalmologist at Manchester Royal Eye Hospital with a specialist interest in uveitis and medical retina. I graduated first in my class from the University of Thessaly Medical School, Greece. I subsequently obtained a Doctor of Philosophy studying the role of Th17 cells in transplantation under the supervision of Herman Waldmann and Stephen Cobbold at the University of Oxford. I completed my ophthalmology specialist training in Liverpool, and a fellowship in medical retina and uveitis at Moorfields Eye Hospital, London. Before joining Manchester Royal Eye Hospital in 2022, I was a consultant ophthalmologist at Oxford Eye Hospital. I am the lead for adult uveitis research at Manchester Royal Eye Hospital and I have an interest in biomarkers of immunosuppression and immune profiling of patients with uveitis. In addition to my NHS duties, I am an associate editor at BMJ Open Ophthalmology and a review editor at Frontiers in Ophthalmology, and I serve as an examiner for the Royal College of Ophthalmologists.
