Biography
Dr Mallikourti graduated from the University of Athens in 2004 with a BSc (Hons) in Physics. She moved to the University of Aberdeen to undertake an MSc in Medical Physics in 2015. She then stayed in Aberdeen to undertake a PhD in Medical Physics, investigating signal acquisition and processing algorithms for lipid composition measurement in breast cancer using a clinical 3T MRI system.
Following the award of her PhD in 2020, she joined the University of Aberdeen Field-cycling Imaging Group as a postdoctoral Research Fellow to investigate the extend Field Cycling Imaging can detect stroke, breast cancer and brain lesions.
Dr Mallikourti also joined the University of Aberdeen Biomedical Imaging Centre in January 2022 as a Research Fellow and co-applicant to investigate the measurement of brain glucose metabolism using Chemical Exchange Saturation Transfer (CEST) in patients with Alzheimer’s disease using the 3T MRI system.
In 2024, Dr Mallikourti launched a new pilot research study to investigate MRI methods for measuring brain glucosamine metabolism.
