Today we are a group of passionate researchers and developers that strives to be creative and deliver innovative solutions. We're always interested to explore new ideas, projects and to grow as a team, so if you're passionate about your research, bring your thesis and work with us.
The Team
Natalia Stathakarou
Co-Founder | R&D Director
Natalia is a PhD candidate at Karolinska Institutet funded by the Swedish Armed Forces and she holds a Master's Degree in Health Informatics from the same University. Her research interests fall within the field of education technologies to advance decision making in military medicine. She has extensive experience of national and international research projects and especially Erasmus+ projects.
Natalia has also participated in the currently largest military medicine exercise organized by NATO in April 2019, Vigorous Warrior, in Romania, focusing on training with simulation. Other interests involve developing virtual scenarios, as well as storyboarding and reusable learning objects. Natalia also has a strong publication record.
