Angelos G. Kalambounias is a Professor in the Department of Chemistry at the University of Ioannina, Greece, where he has progressed from Assistant Professor (2015-2020) to Associate Professor (2020-2024) and finally to full Professor (November 2024-present). He maintains additional affiliations as a Collaborating faculty member at the Institute of Materials Science and Computation and the Institute of Environment and Sustainable Development, and serves on the Board of Directors of the Scientific and Technological Park of Epirus. His research spans multiple domains of physical chemistry with emphasis on spectroscopic techniques. His primary interests include condensed matter structure and dynamics, development of contactless high-temperature spectroscopic measurement techniques, Raman spectroscopy applications in thermodynamics, inorganic coordination complexes, glass science (particularly tellurite and oxide glasses), nanomaterials, atmospheric pollution analysis, and ultrasonic spectroscopy. His work bridges fundamental physical chemistry with practical applications in materials science and environmental monitoring. His publication record shows consistent output since 1999, with recent work focusing on molecular dynamics, peptide structure, drug delivery systems, microplastic analysis, and advanced spectroscopic techniques. His research group comprises numerous students across physics and chemistry disciplines, reflecting the interdisciplinary nature of his work. Among his professional roles, he serves as a Review Editor on the Editorial Board of 'Battery Systems and Applications' and has acted as a reviewer for over 30 international scientific journals spanning physical chemistry, materials science, and spectroscopy. His teaching portfolio includes undergraduate and graduate courses in physical chemistry, statistical mechanics, quantum chemistry applications, spectroscopic methods, and materials characterization at both the University of Ioannina and previously at the University of Patras.
