Summary
Dimitris Michailidis is a postdoctoral researcher and PhD-trained AI specialist with a decade of experience applying reinforcement learning and multi-agent systems to equitable urban mobility and transport planning. He blends rigorous academic research at the University of Amsterdam with hands-on engineering roots—from building ERP and mobile modules to data science roles in industry. Dimitris founded data storytelling initiatives like Greece in Figures and 100 Europeans, the latter winning 2nd prize at the EU Datathon 2022, showing his talent for turning complex socioeconomic data into accessible visual narratives. His work spans socially aware AI, recommendation systems, and empirical studies of user reactions to social network interventions, reflecting a rare mix of modeling depth and human-centered evaluation. Fluent in both research publication and product-minded implementation, he leverages coding experience and public-facing projects to influence policy-relevant discourse on urban inequality. Based in Amsterdam, he combines technical rigor with a communicator’s instinct to make data-driven insights broadly understandable.
