After the tours, we met with the Director of the Institute, Dr. Evangelos Gogolides, and we watched a presentation by Dr. Evangelos Almpanis, on matters of Theoretical and Computational Condensed Matter Physics.

We are very thankful to all researchers who hosted us in their laboratories, and to Dr. Vasileios Konstantoudis for organising a wonderful visit, which we all very much enjoyed!

Visit to the Institute of Oceanography of HCMR

Our team paid a visit to the Institute of Oceanography's (Hellenic Centre for Marine Research) facility in Anavyssos, Attica.

During the early autumn months and thanks to the significant effort put by our wonderful PR Team, the team was able to change its logo to the current one. Also, the name PHOxYS, which was previously used in an informal capacity was abolished, and the team will solely be known as NTUA Young Minds Section.
