Associate Professor Georgios Giannopoulos

Aristotle University of Thessaloniki, Thessaloniki (Greece)

I was born in 1975 in Athens, Greece. I graduated from the National and Kapodistrian Univeristy of Athens School of Medicine in 2000 and finished my doctorate studies in 2008. I completed my Cardiology residency and fellowship in 2012. I was trained in Interventional Cardiology (mainly coronary interventions and intra-coronary diagnostics) and Cardial Electrophysiology (devices and EP). I was appointed as an adjunct Assistant Professor of Cardiology at Yale University School of Medicine and I was re-appointed several times for a period of 6 years. After working for several years as a Cardiology consultant in a tertiary hospital of the Hellenic National Health System in Athens, I was appointed as an Associate Professor of Cardiology in the School of Medicine of the Aristotle University of Thessaloniki in 2021. My work now focuses on EP and devices. I have close to 200 publications with ca. 6200 citations and an H-index of 39. I am married with 3 children and I enjoy playing tennis.
