Georgios Mitsis

Georgios Mitsis is an Associate Professor and William Dawson Scholar at the Department of Bioengineering, McGill University. His research bridges signals and systems theory with life sciences, focusing on nonlinear/time-varying modeling of biological systems.

• Areas of expertise:
  • Nonlinear and time-varying systems modeling
  • Cerebral hemodynamics and autoregulation
  • Time-varying functional brain connectivity
  • Computational oncology

Research trends: Recent publications highlight his work on dynamic functional connectivity in fMRI, cerebral autoregulation under physiological stress, and multiscale tumor growth modeling. Techniques include machine learning, Kalman filtering, and multimodal neuroimaging (EEG-fMRI, MEG).

• Scientific awards
  • William Dawson Scholar

Labs & teams: Leads the Biosignals and Systems Analysis Lab at McGill, collaborating with the Tumor Virology Lab at the University of Cyprus. Focuses on algorithm development for cerebral hemodynamics and cancer therapy optimization.
