Vasilis Galis

Professor Vasilis Galis is affiliated with the IT University of Copenhagen, focusing on interdisciplinary research at the intersection of disability studies, science and technology studies (STS), and sociotechnical systems. His work interrogates how technology and infrastructure shape social exclusion, border control, and resistance movements. Key areas include disability activism, digital resistance, and critiques of predictive policing and platform labor.

Research interests span critical disability studies, border studies, and the sociotechnical dynamics of migration and policing. He analyzes how digital platforms and surveillance technologies reconfigure public policy, labor dynamics, and marginalized communities' agency. Recent work explores predictive policing systems in Denmark and the ontological politics of border control technologies.

Notable projects include studies on the Athens Metro disability movement, migrant digital spaces, and the ethics of data integration in policing. His publications critically engage with Actor-Network Theory and epistemological politics to challenge dominant narratives in technology governance and social justice.
