Short Biography
Charalampos (Babis) Pappas received his M.Sc. Degree in 2012 from the University of Ioannina, where he worked on the cis/trans isomerisation of proline on model peptides. In 2016, he received his Ph.D. degree entitled ”Supramolecular Systems Chemistry using Peptides” from the University of Strathclyde in Glasgow working in the group of Prof. Rein Ulijn. After a short 6-month postdoctoral stay at the Advanced Science Research Centre (ASRC), at the City University of New York, in 2017 he received a Marie Curie Fellowship and moved to the University of Groningen, in the Netherlands, where he worked with Prof. Sijbren Otto on dynamic folded macromolecules. Babis joined as a group leader the Cluster of Excellence Living, Adaptive and Energy-autonomous Materials Systems (livMatS) in October 2020, investigating the use of a systems chemistry approach towards the discovery of fully synthetic chemical systems with life-like behavior.
