Tzamarias Dimitrios

Professor Dimitrios Tzamarias is a faculty member in the Department of Biochemistry, Molecular Biology, Cellular and Developmental Biology at the University of Crete. He obtained his PhD in 1990 from the same institution. His research focuses on transcriptional regulation dynamics, epigenetic inheritance mechanisms, and age-related cellular changes using yeast as a model system. Key projects include studies on global transcriptional co-activators/repressors, chromatin-mediated regulation, and asymmetric inheritance of cellular damage during aging.

Recent publications (2016-2017) emphasize non-coding RNA roles, stress response mechanisms, and molecular pathways in yeast. His work spans disciplines like molecular genetics, biochemistry, and cell biology, with applications to understanding epigenetic memory and aging processes.

No specific awards or grants are listed here, but his extensive publication record reflects sustained contributions to the field. He supervises research in labs at IMBB-FORTH and collaborates with peers in cellular and developmental biology.
