Dr. Stavros G. Stavrinides is a Physicist with a MSc in Electronics and a PhD in Chaotic Electronics, all awarded by Aristotle University of Thessaloniki, in Thessaloniki, Greece. He currently serves as a Faculty Member (ΕΔΙΠ) of the School of Science and Technology at International Hellenic University (IHU), Thessaloniki, Greece.
He has taught in academia numerous topics in circuit theory and electronics, timeseries forecasting and data security. Previous academic positions, include serving as a Visiting Assistant Professor in the ECE Dept. at University of Cyprus (2012-2013); Adjunct Lecturer/Assistant Professor in Physics (2009-2011), Informatics Depts. (2008-2010) and the MSc on Electronic Physics (2006-2010) at Aristotle University of Thessaloniki, the Computer Science Department (2014-2017), the MSc on Informatics and Computational Biology (2014-2017) and the MSc in Financial Forecasting and Econophysics (2017-2021) at the University of Thessaly and the Department of Electrical Engineering T.E. (2008-2018) at the TEI of Eastern Macedonia and Thrace. He has also supervised several undergraduate and master theses, while he currently co-supervises an on-going PhD at the University of Balearic Islands in Spain.
His research interests include, non-exhaustively, the design of analog and mixed-signal electronic circuits, chaotic electronics and their applications, including chaotic synchronization (with emphasis on secure data transmission and cryptography), nonlinear/chaotic devices/nanodevices, memristors, the Internet of Things and edge computing, stochastic logic circuits and systems, education and econophysics.
Dr. Stavrinides has participated, as a researcher or coordinator, in several nationally and internationally (EU, NATO) funded projects, while he served as the STSM Committee Chair in the COST-IC1401 action on memristors.
Dr. Stavrinides has been member of numerous Conference Committees (Program/Organizing/Scientific), while he chaired the 4th International Interdisciplinary Symposium on Chaos and Complex Systems (CCS2019). He has been reviewer in more than 80 prestigious scientific journals and conferences, as well as research projects, edited two books and guest edited six journal special issues.
Finally, he is an IEEE Senior Member and member of the Chua Memristor Center.
