BIOGRAPHY:

Dr. Photios Anninos received his BS in Physics from the University of Athens1960), Greece, his MSC in high energy physics from Syracuse University (1966)and a PhD in Medical Physics from Syracuse University, USA(1969).Dr.Anninos then undertook Post Doctoral training in Anatomy and brain Research Institute  at the University of California, LA, USA.He then became Assistant Professor of Biomathematics and Research Anatomist in the School of Medicine, University of California, LA, USA.

Dr. Anninos then became Assistant Professor of Physics in Concordia University of Montreal, P.Q. Canada and Associate Professor of Physics at the same University in Canada. He then moved to Greece and became Associate Professor of Neurology and Full professor of medical physics in Democritus University of Thrace Alexandroupolis, Greece.Finally he is now Emeritus Professor in the School of Medicine Democritus University of Thrace, Alexandroupolis, Greece.He has published more than 200 original research articles in journals including research for epilepsy, Parkinson, multiple sclerosis, autism, neural net models and in chaos theory.In addition he is using SQUID technology  for diagnostic purposes and TMS in order to see its effects to patients with CNS disorders.

RESEARCH INTEREST:

[a] Nuclear Physics [High Energy Physics] Pd-->KK [P] at rest in Bubble chamber. From 1960-1968

[b] Theoretical Biophysics [from 1968-present] Theoretical neural models to understand the structure and function of the Central Nervous System [CNS], models for memory, models for the abnormal function of CNS, models for the topology of the connections in CNS and finally, models for the electromagnetic radiation from the brain. The above models were established using theoretical and computer simulation techniques.

[c] Experimental Neuroelectrophysiology [1969-1980].

[i] Intracellular recordings from the optic center of the cat's brain as well as Electroencephalographic [EEG] measurements in order to determine the topology of neuronal connections and also to correlate our theoretical and experimental results.

[ii] Measurements with my Ph.D student J.A. Tetenes of the electromagnetic intensities using the medical linear electron accelerator in the Albert Einstein Institute [Department of Radiology] for patients with artificial cardiac pacemakers.

[iii] Measurements of Magnetoencephalogram [MEG] 3 mm from the skull of the patients using electronic devices known as SQUIDs [Super-Conducting-Quantum-Interference-Devices].
