Stelios is an alumni of the Tian Lab. He graduated from UC Davis with a BS in Neurobiology, Physiology, and Behavior and is currently a graduate student at Baylor University.

While working at the Tian Lab, Stelios was involved in creating novel constructs to image dissociated neurons in vitro. His research interests centered on studying the ion dynamics of neurons at the cellular and synaptic level.

His long term goal is to work as a neurologist while researching novel mechanisms for brain/machine interface.
