Georgios Kapetanakis was informed by the FNRS that he’s among the laureates of the 2017 competition for FRIA fellowships. Georgios obtained his master diploma last year in the University of Athens (Greece). He did a master thesis work in the lab of Pr. G. Diallinas where he investigated the role of membrane transporters in resistance to specific drugs by the fungus Aspergillus nidulans. During his PhD, Georgios Kapetanakis will investigate the molecular mechanisms of the still-poorly understood phenomenon of amino acid excretion by yeast, in the context of a collaboration with Dr. Isabelle Georis of the IRMW institute (Anderlecht).
