Dr. Apostolos Pilaftsis

Biography

Apostolos Pilaftsis is a professor in the Department of Physics at the University of Manchester, specializing in theoretical particle physics. His research encompasses several key areas including model building and supersymmetric higher-dimensional theories. Pilaftsis has a robust interest in collider phenomenology and flavour CP violation, with significant contributions to Higgs and neutrino physics. He applies field theory approaches to explore concepts in cosmology, particularly those relevant to the early universe. With a formidable background in quantum chromodynamics and a solid network of collaborations within the global physics community, Pilaftsis is actively involved in ongoing research efforts that aim to test theoretical principles through empirical experiments. His work not only enhances the understanding of fundamental physics but also connects to broader scientific initiatives, such as the UN Sustainable Development Goals.
