Prof.Dr. Errikos C. Ventouras received his diploma in engineering from the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering of the National Technical University of Athens in 1989 and a Ph.D. in biomedical engineering from the same department in 1994. From 1991 to 1998, he worked as an electrical engineer, participating in R&D projects. From 1994 to 1998, he also worked in companies in the public and private sectors in the fields of telecommunications and biomedical engineering and as a researcher at the University Research Institute of Computer and Communications of the National Technical University of Athens. Since 1998, his permanent position has been with the Department of Biomedical Engineering of the University of West Attica, where he is currently a professor. He has taught graduate courses at the University of Patras, the University of Athens, and the University of West Attica.  He is a reviewer at leading international scientific journals and congresses in the field of biomedical engineering; he was co-chair, a member of scientific committees, and member of the program committees of international conferences; and he was a member of the editorial board of international journals. His research interests include biomedical signal acquisition and processing, computer-based diagnostic systems, machine learning, electro- and magneto-encephalography, neurological and behavioral monitoring, brain source imaging, and computer-based examination systems.
Prof. Spiros Kostopoulos is an Associate Professor in the Department of Biomedical Engineering of the University of West Attica in the field of medical image analysis. He received his B.Sc. degree in biomedical engineering from the Department of Medical Instruments Technology of the Technological Educational Institute of Athens, Greece, in 2000, an M.Sc. degree in medical physics from the University of Surrey, UK, in 2004, and a Ph.D. in medical physics from the University of Patras, Greece, in 2009. His main research activities lie in the fields of medical image analysis, decision support systems, pattern recognition, machine learning, and bioinformatics.
Prof. Pantelis Asvestas received his diploma in engineering from the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering of the National Technical University of Athens and a Ph.D. in engineering from the same department in the field of medical image processing. In 2008, he was appointed to the Department of Medical Instruments Technology of the Technological Educational Institute of Athens, Greece. Nowadays, he is a Professor in the Department of Biomedical Engineering at the University of West Attica, Greece. His research interests include pattern recognition, medical informatics with an emphasis on digital processing of medical images, the development of linear and non-linear techniques for the digital processing of medical images, automatic alignment and fusion of multidimensional medical data with global optimization methods, digital processing of biosignals (EEG, ECG, myographic signals, etc.), visualization of medical data, and the development of decision support systems.
