Ioannis S. Gousias,
United Kingdom  Mr. Ioannis Spyridon Gousias, first in rank graduate student of the Experimental High School of Anavryta and holder of an MEng in Electrical and Computer Engineering from the National Technical University of Athens, completed his postgraduate studies in Neuroscience in Imperial College London (MSc in Integrative Neuroscience) with Outstanding Distinction and ranked first among all the postgraduate students. He started his PhD on Neonatal Brain Imaging in ICL, in collaboration with the MRC Clinical Sciences Centre and the Department of Pediatrics in Hammersmith Hospital, the Department of Computing in ICL and the Institute of Child Health in the University College London. Ioannis works on anatomical modeling and brain mapping of premature infants, infants of normal gestational period and children up to the age of 6 years, implementing, improving and developing the algorithms and methods he has already established and has been using for adult brain mapping and probabilistic anatomical brain atlasing. Also, combining brain atlasing with probabilistic tractography and networks theory, he monitors the development of the “network” of the brain and its components. Basic aim of his research is the linkage between anatomical findings and clinical and neuropsychological examinations, the combination of anatomical and functional brain imaging, as well as the monitoring of the normal or abnormal development of the brain from the age of birth till adulthood, based on clinical, qualitative and quantitative data. He won the first prize during the Young Scientist’s Day in London for 2007. Also, he was the official representative of the United Kingdom in the 57th Annual Meeting of the Nobel Laureates with the world’s most talented and ingenious young scientists, after national selection and final judgment by the Council of the Nobel Laureates. He is an advanced violin player, speaks five languages and has served as President in the European Youth Parliament.
