Dr. Konstantinos Mitsakakis is a Physicist with an MSc on Nanoscience & Nanotechnology. He acquired his doctoral degree from the Department of Materials Science & Engineering, University of Crete, Greece, while working in Biosensors Technology Lab at the Institute of Molecular Biology & Biotechnology, Foundation for Research & Technology Hellas (IMBB-FORTH), Greece. His PhD topic was the development of a multi-analyte acoustic biosensor platform for cardiac marker detection.

Dr. Mitsakakis has a track record in the acquisition and management of national and EU research projects. In 2011 he joined IMTEK with an Alexander von Humboldt Foundation fellowship. He then coordinated the FP7-ICT project DiscoGnosis and the H2020 project DIAGORAS while he has been partner in the Horizon Europe project HOLICARE, the H2020 projects DMC-MALVEC and SuperPests, the Eurostars project Respiotic, and the national BMBF projects DiagnoSeps, SEPTICISION and COVIRES. He has been member of various JPIAMR-funded networks on diagnostics for fighting antimicrobial resistance since 2017. He is the initiator of the activities for diagnostics for developing countries at Hahn-Schickard and is in contact with several organisations for the translation of the research outcomes from laboratory to clinics/end-users.

He is author of >40 publications with several contributions in international conferences. His research interests are in the field of micro/nanotechnology for life sciences, biosensor technologies, microfluidics, lab-on-a-chip and microanalytical systems, as well as point-of-care diagnostics. Since 2016 he was heading the International Business Development Group of Hahn-Schickard and recently in 2024 he became Immunoassay Group Leader at the Bioanalysis Division of Hahn-Schickard.
