Summary
Sokratis Makrogiannis is a Professor with 11 years of academic experience and a deep research background in image analysis and machine learning, focused on biomedical imaging and computer vision. He has progressed through faculty ranks at Delaware State University and previously held senior research and industry roles at NIH, GE Global Research, and GlaxoSmithKline building practical image-processing solutions for MR, CT, PET-CT and small-animal imaging. His expertise spans image segmentation, registration, pattern recognition and statistical methods, informed by postdoctoral training at UPenn and Wright State and a PhD in image processing from the University of Patras. Known for translating research into applied tools, he has been embedded in clinical imaging labs (3T MRI) and industrial R&D, bridging theory and deployment. Based in Philadelphia, he combines rigorous academic scholarship with hands-on algorithm development for real-world biomedical problems. An understated strength is his sustained cross-sector experience—academic, government, and industry—that accelerates translational impact of imaging research.
