Ilias Tagkopoulos
Assistant Professor
Ph.D., Princeton University, 2008
Professor Tagkopoulos' interests span a variety of topics related to evolutionary biology, synthetic and systems biology, computational biology and bioinformatics. He is particularly interested in the modeling, simulation and experimental validation of biological hypotheses regarding the emergence of microbial behaviors in complex environments, the effect of environmental correlation-structure to genotypic and phenotypic characteristics, and the design and implementation of computational tools, both in hardware and software, for synthetic and systems biology. Professor Tagkopoulos is also a faculty member of the UC Davis Genome Center. Prior to joining UC Davis he was a post-doctoral fellow in Princeton's Lewis-Sigler Institute for Integrative Genomics and a relationship manager in Credit Suisse's LOCuS group (DIT-SRA). He earned a Dipl.-Ing. in Electical and Computer Engineering from University of Patras, a MSc in Microelectronics from Columbia University and a PhD in Electrical Engineering from Princeton University in 2001, 2003 and 2008 respectively.
