Serafim Kalliadasis. Serafim Kalliadasis is an applied mathematician and chemical engineer working at Imperial College London since 2004.

Career 
Serafim Kalliadasis earned a five-year undergraduate degree in chemical engineering at the Polytechnic School of the Aristotle University of Thessaloniki, Greece. He graduated in 1989. In 1990 he started his PhD studies at the University of Notre Dame, USA. His doctoral thesis was in the general of fluid dynamics and was supervised by Prof. H.-C. Chang.

Following his PhD in 1994 he moved on to the University of Bristol, UK, as post-doctoral fellow in applied mathematics.

In 1995 he took up his first academic position at the Chemical Engineering Department of the University of Leeds, UK. In 2004 he was appointed to Readership in Fluid Mechanics at Department of Chemical Engineering, Imperial College, UK, in 2004 and was promoted to Professor in Engineering Science & Applied Mathematics at Imperial College in 2010.

Research 
Serafim Kalliadasis' expertise is in the interface between Applied and Computational Mathematics, Complex Systems and Engineering, covering both fundamentals and applications. He leads the Complex Multiscale Systems Group of Imperial College London.
