Panagiotis Moschou

Panagiotis Moschou obtained his B.Sc. Degree in Biology at the National & Kapodistrian University of Athens, Greece. He continued his studies in Molecular Plant Biology at the University of Crete, Greece and he got his Masters and Ph.D. in 2009 in Molecular Plant Physiology studying the roles of polyamine oxidases in plant stress. After serving his compulsory military service, he moved in 2010 to Sweden for his postdoc at the Swedish University of Agricultural Sciences to study the role of proteases in the so-called Christmas tree (Norway spruce). In 2017 he started his group at the Swedish University of Agricultural Sciences, and in 2018 he was elected Associate Professor of Molecular Plant Physiology at the Biology Department, University of Crete. In 2019, he joined IMBB-FORTH as an Affiliated Researcher. His main scientific focus is on how proteins and RNAs, interact and assemble in distinct cellular entities with important regulatory functions in development and stress. For his studies, he has received several distinctions, with the most notable being an award from the Federation of European Societies of Plant Physiology and a European Research Council Consolidator grant.
