Dr. Panos Chrysanthis, a professor with the Department of Computer Science, has been recognized for his contributions to the data management community! During the Hellenic Data Management Symposium (HDMS) 2025 held in Ioannina, Greece, the Association for Computing Machinery (ACM) SIGMOD Chapter recognized Chrysanthis for his work in the field. This is the first time this distinction has been awarded, making it especially meaningful for Chrysanthis.
As Chrysanthis noted, this award was celebrated "true to tradition", with the recognition followed by a celebratory dance as a gesture of thanks.
The Hellenic ACM SIGMOD Chapter was established in 2024 in order to connect the Greek data management research community internationally, promote its scientific and educational contributions, and support mentorship of researchers in Greece, Cyprus, and beyond.
Please join is in congratulating Dr. Chrysanthis on this achievement!
