Academic Staff
At the Cyprus School of Molecular Medicine, our students are taught and supervised by the leading Neurologists, Geneticists and Biomedical Scientists in Cyprus. Our Faculty Members and Academic Staff have a range of research interests with vast experience in their respective fields, which they have gained as members of the Departments and Clinics of the Cyprus Institute of Neurology & Genetics and in other posts where they have studied and served internationally.
Our Faculty and Academic Staff are active members and contributors of the global scientific community through their research collaborations, international networks, conferences and partner projects. This cumulative knowledge is the driving force behind the learning experience at the CSMM!
