Maria Antoniou completed her Integrated Master’s degree at the School of Chemical Engineering of the National Technical University of Athens (2017-2022). She conducted her diploma thesis, ‘Simulation of experimental electrochemical measurements with one-dimensional and two-dimensional models with axial symmetry’ and she participated in a summer internship program in The Cyprus Institute (CyI), where she worked on concentrated solar power technology.
After finishing her studies, she worked as a Junior Researcher at NovaMechanics Ltd, where she obtained a strong foundation in machine learning techniques and their application in nanomaterials. She has contributed to projects focusing on predictive models for computer-aided drug design, as well as for nanomaterial toxicity, environmental impact, and risk assessment of nanoparticles.
Maria joined the Melomanes project in October 2023 and started as a doctoral researcher at NovaMechanics. She will be working on the development of innovative nanoinformatics models and in silico tools for iron carbide nanoparticles.
